Small Deeds with Big Results

Recently our school adopted a student in Honduras. This child wants to go to high school and complete their education, but does not have the ability to pay the necessary fees. Our friends at El Ayudante in Honduras offer a scholarship program to students who will work hard to finish school. So we raised money to pay for a student to be able to go to school this year!

Our kindergarten students wanted to be a part of this mission to serve others, so they decided to work hard too! Each student in class completed a chore or job at home and then got paid for that work. The students then brought the money they earned to school and put it in a jar. At the end of their work, they earned $74.00 to help sponsor the student!

We are so proud that some of our youngest students have worked so selflessly to help someone else. Way to go kindergarten!!

Joining In

The purpose of Do Something 1:8 is to strive to be the hands and feet of Jesus in our community. Our middle school students are able to serve in many different ways and in different locations. That doesn't mean our elementary school students are left out, however. They are serving in their own ways!


During the holidays, our 3rd grade classes visited the Ronald McDonald house as their service project. They prepared for their visit by writing stories about their Christmas Village display and making them into placemats for the house. They also made Christmas tree centerpieces for their dining room and collected gift cards to be given to the residents of the house.


When they arrived, they were given a tour of the house by the Volunteer Programs Manager. The students wiped down the tables in the dining room and placed the placemats and centerpieces on them. The students enjoyed serving others and we're proud of them for making a difference!
