Headmaster’s Message By LTC Feathers “O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good. His mercies endureth forever (1 Chron. 16:34).” I pray that all of you enjoy the upcoming Thanksgiving break with your family. Take time during this season to reflect on all of the blessings that God has given you. All of us are blessed beyond measure. Over the holiday break, make an effort to share these blessings. Begin by sharing kindness with those around you, especially to your family. Offer to babysit your little brother or sister. Be a help around the house. Offer to rake the leaves. Set the table. Clean up after meals. Keep your room clean. Take one day and do some volunteer work in your community. Spend quality time with your family. Go out of your way to express gratitude to those who have done so much to support you through your F.U.M.A. experience so far. And remember to take time to thank God for the many ways He shows His love to you every day. Enjoy your vacation!
