WEEK OF MARCH 24 - 30, 2019 Principal's Message - Stubborn One hundred fty- ve years ago, during the American Civil War, an army of Union soldiers had become frustrated. For years, this Union army had fought under many different generals. But, no matter who was in charge the result was always the same. They would ght a battle against the Confederate Army, things would get messy and bloody, the Union general in command would lose his nerve and call a retreat, and the war would drag on. But, then a new general arrived by the name of Ulysses S. Grant. At rst, it seemed nothing had changed. Under Grant they had a sharp battle against the Confederate Army. Things got messy and bloody. The next day they received orders to march. “Here we go again,” the soldiers thought. But, when they arrived at a fork in the road, instead of marching north in retreat, Grant led them south toward their enemy. Ulysses S. Grant was the general they needed. He was a stubborn, determined man. He continued pressing and pressing, attacking and attacking until, eventually, victory was won. Ulysses S. Grant may have been a stubborn, determined man when it came to defeating the Confederate Army; but even he cannot out-stubborn Jesus. When it comes to his love for you, Jesus is the most stubborn and determined person in all creation. Remember that. Remember that when your burdens stubbornly stick to you. Perhaps it’s an ailing parent, a drifting child, uncertain nances, health problems, loneliness, or regrets from your past that you cannot seem to forget. Perhaps it’s just the wear and tear of living in a broken, sinful world.

When your burdens stubbornly stick to you, remember that Jesus is determined to keep his every promise to you. That is what he sealed in his blood on the cross and guaranteed with his empty tomb. He proved his love for you then and he’s not backing away now. Because when it comes to Jesus’ love for you, no one can out-stubborn him.

Update from Mr. Bohl's class The 7-8th graders have started learning their play for our performance in May. Our play is a fractured fairy tale based off of many popular fairy tales. The fairy tale characters give us some insight into how they thought their stories should go! The basketball season has o cially come to an end in the upper grades. The girls A team had their nal game Thursday night. They had an a amazing season, only losing 2 times over the whole season! Congrats to the boys and girls on wonderful seasons. We will start getting ready for track soon. In science the upper graders are starting to learn all about atoms and elements and compounds. Which means we may get to blow things up in science, or as I have told them, I will blow things up and they can watch!

Hot Lunch Volunteers Needed! Wednesday Hot Lunch Volunteers for 2019-2020 School Year Reformation Lutheran School has offered Wednesday hot lunches for as long as anyone can remember!

The current Wednesday hot lunch team leader Signe Holladay (parent of 4 current Reformation students) will be retiring her Reformation lunch apron at the end of this school year. We are looking for a new team leader as well as more team members to carry on the Wednesday hot lunch program. Signe can offer a wealth of information about planning, purchasing and preparing the lunch items to get a new lead volunteer off to a great start.
