Secure your opportunity

Our worship time is 'fun for me because we get to have fun and praise the Lord. God has spoken to me once and the verse he gave me is now my favorite verse. I feel that this time (worship) is not just worship. I feel that it is getting to know God, getting closer to him and learning about myself.I love it because it helps me grow closer to God.' Reflections offered by our fifth graders following a recent time of prayer and praise. Although words of fifth graders, it is a true reflection of what has happened on our campuses this year. Next Tuesday, our high school students will head to the Dominican Republic. Their work will expand the physical size of the Christian school we have supported for many years and include ministry through team sports and outreach activities. From our youngest to oldest students, TCS is creating opportunities for them to grow in their personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Secure your child's experience by enrolling today!

Headed to the State Finals

Wow - we have two teams headed to the state finals! One team, sporting 15 young high school men and the other, a middle school team of one.

Tuesday night is a big night for TCS. One team will compete against an old rival, Lenawee Christian. The other team will compete against students from around the state.

One team's win will take them into a semi final game at the Breslin Center. The other team will compete for the honor of representing Michigan in the National Spelling Bee finals.

Our young men have played with dignity and grace through a long season of endless practices and Class A challenges. Our young lady, has practiced with the help her parents and competed against her peers and students from surrounding districts.

One team will go together in unity supported by school coaches, families, and friends. The other team will face the competition with less public support, but strengthened by the prayers and encouragement of her middle school friends and teachers.

On Tuesday night, our varsity basketball team will meet their rival in Jackson, Michigan, while seventh grader, Lisa McKelvey, competes at the Gerald R. Ford Museum. I am proud of both our teams.

I love basketball and look forward to my trip to the Breslin. However, this Tuesday night, I will join a smaller contingent and cheer on Lisa as she competes in her state finals.

Both teams deserve our support. Where ever you are on Tuesday night, remember to pray for their success and if that equals a win ............. we'll see you at the next venue!

GO BLUE!!!!!
