Prayers for TCCS March 25

Each week I’d like to focus our prayers on certain aspects of Terra Ceia Christian School so that we can more intentionally lift this place up before God’s throne. If we call on His name, we will feel His blessing whether the events around us are calm or stormy. Please join with us in praying for Terra Ceia Christian School!

The student focus is taken from “31 Biblical Virtues to pray for your kids” by Bob Hostetler. This was taken from Pray! Magazine.

• Students–Joy–”May the students of TCCS be filled with the joy given by the Holy Spirit” (1 Thessalonians 1:6).
• Class Focus–Kindergarten
• Teacher Focus–Pastor Weemhoff (8th Bible)
• School Focus–Pray that Spiritual Emphasis Week can have a huge impact on students, both this week and well into their futures. May the messages from God touch each student in just the right way to move them closer to Christ.

New Family and Pastor Discounts

With the goal of decreasing one of the largest initial hurdles to Christian education, the Finance Committee and Board of Terra Ceia Christian School has decided to offer a $1000 New Family Discount for students in grades K-12. We also hope that it will help you to talk to friends, family, and neighbors about the blessings of Terra Ceia Christian School. Our ultimate goal is to increase enrollment so that we have healthy class sizes from grades K-12. And what better way to do that than to pass along a blessing from our family to theirs.

Will you help us get the word out?

Will you help us spread the blessing of Christ-centered Education at Terra Ceia Christian School?

As you do so, if your pastor has school-aged kids, please pass along another gift that we have been working on. In recognition of the dedication of our pastors to our churches and communities, we also want to offer them an ongoing Pastoral Discount of $1000 per family per school year.

Terra Ceia Christian School has always held that we cannot replace the “first families” of home and church. We only function well as a school when our families are seeking to grow closer to Christ as a family unit and worshiping together at local church. We serve an important servant role to the institutions of family and church. These discounts are aimed at continuing that servant role: blessing Christian families and blessing our churches by way of their pastors.

Correction: Prayers for March 18

In trying to schedule some of these posts, I forgot to change the prayer request when I changed the dates for our standardized testing! So just to make sure parents are not panicking, we are not testing this week.

It is however the end of the 3rd quarter which brings its own set of anxiety and rush to finish projects and assignments. So if you would lift up our students as they finish this leg of the race, it would be appreciated.

Blessings,

Mr. Postma
