Something to Think About
Go... Make a Difference

Let us not become weary in doing
good, for at the proper time we will
reap a harvest if we do not give up.

Fingerprint Friday: Teachers

By MAD21

Three years ago we were looking for a preschool for our children to go to. We wanted to find a school that not only had opportunities for the girls to play with other kids, but had a good curriculum, and Christ as their foundation. Our girls loved to learn and we wanted them to be in an environment that encouraged good behavior where they could learn the basics, learn how to play well with others, with the freedom to share our faith.

Not only did we find an awesome preschool, we found an awesome school with a great educational philosophy and curriculum, with wonderful Christ-filled teachers. And to top it off, our girls can attend all the way through the 12th grade.

Our family has been so blessed by our daughter's teachers these last three years. We are thankful for how much they love our girls, and for how much they have taught them. Everyday, not only are our girls learning academics, they are witnessing Christ's love that shines through these men and women.

I am so, SO glad that we have these teachers to help us teach our girls how to become the women of God he wants them to be. The fingerprints of God are clearly all over them, I can see those prints showing up on our children.

Fellow blogger Beki at The Rusted Chain has a really great weekly post she does every Friday called "Fingerprint Friday." We are to look around and see where we can see God's fingerprints. Is it in nature? Kids? Animals? Anywhere? Go find out where Beki saw God this week, and be sure to check out the other bloggers who linked their stories as well.

How wonderful! Congratulations! I wish there had been more such schools years ago when I was looking. I'm so thankful people have gone out on a limb and taken risks to establish such wonderful schools.

Thanks for the comments. We really are blessed. They have all the usual rules of a private school, but there is enough grace involved that it's not like a miserable place to be. The kids in the hallways are so polite, and seem very happy.

Ginny,
You are so awesome. We could not do what we do without the supportive parents who truly want to see their children grow into Godly men and women. It's all about partnering with one another. Thank you for entrusting your children to us.
