Upcoming Events at CCS:
Grandparents Day—One of the best days of the year!
We love having all of the grandparents here. 
and into the early evening. We are looking for a few people who love to throw
pots and have the know-how to do it.
We would also love hand-built pottery if
you have a knack for that instead of
using the pottery wheels. This is open to
parents, students, and friends of the
school. If you have questions about this
event, contact Mrs. Burke at
[email protected] or
Heather Schreier at
[email protected].
Auction? I thought
that was in the fall…
DID YOU KNOW that planning is well
underway for next year's auction? We
have many areas that need help in the
spring and summer to make things run
much more smoothly in the fall.
SOLICITATION: Are you willing to approach local businesses that you frequent or fill out online applications for
donations for the auction? Contact Keith
Morris at keith.morris.auction@ conestogachristian.net. Keith is also looking
for someone to come alongside him to
coordinate this area. Talk to Keith if
you are interested in shadowing him to
see what is involved.

ELEMENTARY MARCH MADNESS SCORES BIG!
Our CCS pre-K through fifth grades are bouncing 230 books to Honduras! Yes, you read
that correctly! 230 books!! Our elementary program had a book drive for a recent CCS
graduate/now elementary teacher, Kaitlyn Kurtz. Miss Kurtz is currently teaching first and
second grades at a bilingual Christian elementary school, Comunidad Educativa Evangelica, in Singuatepeque, Honduras. She has shared with CCS that they are in definite
need of reading books in English throughout the elementary program, but their funds are very limited. Here at CCS God
has blessed us with many resources, including multiple copies of leveled books for each grade level. With God's leading,
we set out to help provide some of the same kinds of resources for our brothers and sisters in Honduras, and WITH GOD
WE DID! WHOOP! WHOOP! Thank you for all your support! You are all WINNERS! WHOOP! WHOOP!
