🎵Praising Jesus for the first days of school🎶

We are SO thankful to have our school filled with the smiles, laughter, and energy of our students! What a blessing it is to see our hallways and classrooms full of life again. 🦅

We have had a great first few days of school, and it has been so much fun watching our students:
✨ Form new friendships and build relationships
📚 Gain new knowledge and discover new things
🙏 Grow in their faith and learn more about Jesus

We are excited for all that God has in store for this school year! We pray that each day will be filled with opportunities to learn, love, lead, and live for Jesus. 💙

🎵Praising Jesus for our St. John’s Staff🎶

We are so incredibly thankful to God for our amazing St. John’s staff! 💙 Over the past two weeks, they have poured countless hours, energy, and love into preparing for the upcoming school year.

From meetings and trainings, to a staff retreat, serving together at Feed My Starving Children, setting up classrooms, and spending intentional time in prayer and praise, our staff members have been busy preparing both their classrooms and their hearts for another incredible year.

We are so blessed to have these staff members who love Jesus, love our students, and are committed to helping them learn, grow, and experience God’s love each day. ❤️

After these busy weeks, we are ready and excited for all that God has in store for the 2026–2027 school year!

We can’t wait to see everyone on our first day of school—September 1st!
