We will also learn about Jacobs Lie which reminds us that we all make sinful choices, but what joy we have in Jesus who came to take those sins away! On Tuesday Mr. Washburn will talk with the children in grades Jr. K-2 about bullying in order to equip them to properly identify and deal with that type of behavior. As a preventative measure Mr. Washburn is speaking to the whole school on this matter.
