Could you help with a meal for two?

Our friend just had foot surgery and is having a hard time getting around. Could you help with a meal as she recovers?

There is just the two of them Scott and Mary Savage (Scott was Zachariah’s football coach when he played PALS!) and they are new members of CBC and are not yet members of a Sunday School class.

They are not picky eaters and the only thing they would prefer not to get is veal or eggplant:)

I have signed up for tomorrow – but if anyone could bring them a meal Friday or Mon, Wed or Friday next week… it would be SO appreciated!

Here is the link: http://www.takethemameal.com/meals.php?t=AUKH7588

Thank you for blessing them!

Donations for Connie Maxwell Home

From Amy Fitzgerald –

For a second year in a row, we, as a family, are unable to attend the Crossroads trip with the boys and we would like to help in some way.  connie maxwell home

After searching the website for the Connie Maxwell Children’s Home I had an idea how those of us here at home could still do our part as our teenagers serve the home this weekend.  I found a list of needed weekly items and thought as a group we could find some of these items around our homes or during a quick trip to Wal-Mart to donate when our children go there this weekend.  

I will be collecting the items this week or  you may simply bring them to the Friday departure (3pm at CBC).  I know this is short notice, but I think our gifts could still be a blessing to those at the Connie Maxwell Home.

If each family could donate even one or two items from this list, it would be quite a blessing.  If you will not be there on Friday to drop off, I will be at church Tues-Wed for Stanford testing, church on Wednesda y night, and at the drop off for the trip on Friday.  Thank you in advance for your help.  

I have attached a list of the weekly items they need the most: http://www.conniemaxwell.com/Helping/Groceries/2013grocerylistgeneralr.pdf

Spanish

This came through my e-mail; just passing it along; “caveat emptor”!

Do you need a Spanish curriculum for your co-op classes? Spanish for You! grades 3-8 is a curriculum designed specifically within a homeschool co-op environment. It allows you to teach class once a week for an hour and assign homework in between with ALL the work done for you.

It is inexpensive and fun, and can be taught by anyone whether they know Spanish or not. Material is presented through interesting themes, and one theme can be used with all grades during the same year. This streamlines the teacher’s work and allows for students of multiple ages to practice at home together.

Also, students with no Spanish experience can be placed in a class with experienced students of their same grade at the beginning of a school year. Experienced students continue to progress while new students are seamlessly integrated.

If you would like to know more about Spanish for You!, please visit my site, www.spanish-for-you.net. Or feel free to contact me via e-mail at support@spanish-for-you.netAlso, Spanish for You! can be used at HOME independently.
