Dear Parents,
From the school's inception, we felt it of utmost importance to teach our students to be "givers" by taking part in activities that help our neighbours and community--establishing the importance of good citizenship. We’ve found that students benefit greatly—both academically and emotionally—from giving their time to make the community and world a better place. While performing community service, children have the opportunity to see first-hand just how much their work can have an impact on the world.
Biblically, it's a Kingdom principle --- you cannot reap what you don't sow. That doesn't mean you give because of what you will get, but it's understanding that we are blessed to be a blessing, not just a consumer of the blessings! As we move forward with plans of new campus/school, let's keep this in mind. As we give and assist Hartfield Basic School, and as we have sown into many other schools over the years, we can rest assured that when it is time for MBCA's building- the needs will be met.
As we enter the season of Christmas, let's keep this in mind. Thank you all very much for how you have given towards the Community Outreach and also the PTA's Fun Day. We are most grateful! Watch and see, how God gives back to you.
Enjoy the holidays! It can become a stressful time-- with pressure to purchase just the right gifts and make it to all the parties. After all the delicious food has been eaten and the sorrel has all been drunk-- remember "for unto us a Son is given..." He came to bring us peace and joy! During the break, take time to enjoy His presence and His peace.
All the best,
Mr. & Mrs. Winkler and Team
