Hello Friends, Supporters, Members, Staff, Alumni and/or Students. Feel free to pass these messages on. Here is Update #6:

More News on Project 20/20!

Building: After further consultation with the city planner assigned to us, we have combined our rezoning request, which allows for educational use of the soon-to-be former fire hall, with our application for Site Plan Approval. These documents will be submitted next week.

Plans for the expansion are continuing to go through further iterations and improvements as we look at ways to optimize our spaces for today's learners as well as those well into the future! Please pray for wisdom--that we use our resources well as we work out the details of our new spaces.

Campaign: The committee, under the leadership of parent volunteer Peter Elgersma, has met twice since the last 2-5 Message. Its work has included approaching foundations for funding and planning the campaign that will reach out to supporters starting in April. Two key dates are Tuesday, April 25, which is the Campaign Kickoff & Spring Membership Meeting at 7:30 p.m., and Thursday, May 18, which is Project 20/20 Pledge Day (you will learn more about Pledge Day next month). At present, just under $575,000 has been raised or pledged. The committee asks for your prayers and consideration as it prepares to reach out to you and others for financial support.
 
Communication: The @td Newsletter "Passion, Wonder, & Awe" edition, which celebrates alumni, projects, learning, and staff members, was distributed in February. See how God is using his children to serve others while learning in the light of his word. The double issue is now displayed in TDChristian's front foyer. You can also view it online at http://www.tdchristian.ca/tdnewsletter.

To conclude, we hope to see you at one or more of the following events: Tuesday, April 25, 2017 (starting at 7:30 p.m.) when we will share more about Project 20/20 and celebrate retiring teacher Alice Vanderkooy's 40 years of teaching, Thursday, May 4, 2017 (starting at 8:45 a.m.) which is our annual Grandparents' Day, or Thursday, May 11, 2017 (from 6 to 8 p.m.), the day we launch NOTICE 2017 (our sixth annual publication of the people of TDChristian making and doing).
