Are you or anyone you know interested in joining this wonderful teaching team? If so, here’s the link to apply: www.tinyurl.com/teachpeepsstl

The PEEPs' teaching staff is a group of women praying for one another, celebrating together, and serving the Lord side by side.

From 8:15-2:15 on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, we train kids to love God and one other. Woven into recess and the alphabet are stories of God’s love and grace.

PEEPs is much more than a preschool; it is a safe place for kids and staff alike to experience the great love of Christ!

Central and PEEPs Families,

Our dear Natalya Parapan, who has faithfully and lovingly served your children for over 20 years both at PEEPs and in the Sunday morning nursery, has been diagnosed with breast cancer. As she goes through a year of treatments, we want to love and support her as best we can. Please commit to praying for her daily!

As far as how to offer tangible assistance, we have decided not to set up a meal train as she is unsure what she will feel like eating and doesn’t want any meals to go to waste. At this time, financial assistance to cover days off work and medical expenses will be most helpful. If you wish to help financially, please Venmo .

If you prefer to give a gift card, Natalya shops for groceries at Schnucks. You may drop it off at Christine’s office on Mondays or Wednesdays this summer or have it placed in Christine’s mailbox in the church mailroom.

Please share this information to other people who have known Natalya over the past 20 years through PEEPs or the church that may no longer receive these communications. Thank you for helping us love up on and support our dear Natalya!

Several of you have asked about the new disinfectant we have been using at PEEPs, called “Force of Nature.” We love this product and wanted to share it with you because it is safe to use around children and pets, is EPA registered, and has so many uses (including killing SARS-COV-2). We know this sounds like an ad, but it’s not! ;) We just truly love this product and wanted to share it with you!

Here’s a little info about it:
Force of Nature electrolyzes a solution of just salt, water & vinegar and transforms it into two ingredients: Sodium hydroxide and hypochlorous acid, which together clean sticky messes, grease & grime, and kill 99.9% of germs.

It can be used virtually anywhere in your house for any job requiring cleaning, deodorizing, or disinfecting. Use it on your counters (including sealed stone), glass, appliances, stainless steel, and even on your baby’s high chair tray, pacifiers, pet bowls, rugs, and cutting boards.

PEEPs signed up for an affiliate link with the company so that you can get $15 off a starter kit with the code LOVE2SAVE, and PEEPs will also get discounts when we order refills. Please use this link if you decide to order!

Meet the little appliance that uses electricity to turn salt, water & vinegar into a family-safe natural cleaner and deodorizer as effective as bleach.

A sense of belonging is important. It is how God has made us. Whether it is belonging to a family or a community, knowing we are part of something larger than ourselves can make us feel known, cared for, and valued. This is never more true than when we come to realize we belong to God, that we are part of his family. We will never be more known, more cared for, or more loved than we are by God.

Knowing we belong may never be more important than in this era of COVID-19. That is why we are so excited for the start of a new semester of EquipU! We have taken the old "Equip Central" concept and spread it out over the entire week! We encourage you to sign up for a class or Bible study and become an active part of the Central community. There is something for every member of the family!

At Central Presbyterian Church you will discover a warm group of real people dedicated to following our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
