Chess Club for grades 1 & 2 TUESDAYS, Jan 9 - February 27
Chess Club for grades 3 and up THURSDAYS, Jan 11 - February 29
Meets @ 2:45-3:30 in the Church Fellowship Hall.
The cost of the club is $20.
Chess is a great sit-down sport and can be intensely competitive – great for learning skills inside and outside of the classroom. It’s also inter-generational – once they learn, they can take the knowledge of the game wherever they go and play with relatives both young and old. Just one more way to interact with people in a healthy, God-honoring way. Consider the benefits for your child. Prior experience is not necessary - we will teach them the game on whatever level they are at.
Please return the attached permission form with payment to the school office or send to caroline.worth@praiseacademy.com to be added to your FACTS account by Tuesday, January 9.
Serving Christ and you,
Coach Mattick

Good morning:
I wanted to give an update on our monthly mission offerings and what they are supporting. Since August, we have raised $1,374.88 through our monthly mission offerings. We have used those mission funds for the following purposes:
Warehouse of Hope, is a local mission organization that serves the community of Paulding County. Here is the website for this organization: https://warehouseofhope.squarespace.com/landing
Caya Ministries is another local mission organization that serves the material and spiritually poor here locally and internationally. Here is their website: https://www.cayaministries.com/
Calvary Children's Home
Here is information about their ministry: https://calvarykids.org/about/
Monies have been used to help those in our school community who have gone through surgery or some other difficult circumstance(s).
Typically, our mission offerings are taken up at the beginning of the month during our chapel service. We will continue to keep you updated on the use of our mission funds as they come in and are dispersed in the coming months.
Thank you for your support of missions!
Daniel J. Youngblood, M.Ed.
