Easter program- Journey to the Cross

Mark your calendars for Tuesday, April 7th for CLA’s annual Easter program!  We will be doing Journey to the Cross,  a multi-sensory experience with stations (similar to the Road to Resurrection we did a couple of years ago!)  Please invite friends, family and neighbors to this outreach event to help spread the Good News of Jesus’ sacrifice for us. 

To help us plan, we are asking that everyone planning on attending to fill out the Google Form below.  We will have groups of 10-15 people go through at a time, and this will help us ensure short wait times!  Please go to  https://tinyurl.com/tsshntk to sign up and request a time!

MS/HS Shedd Aquarium Trip

Middle school/High School students will be traveling to Shedd Aquarium tomorrow -  Friday, February 28th. We are leaving no later than 6am and are tentatively scheduled to arrive back at the school around 5:30pm.  Students must bring a sack lunch with disposable items- please do not send reusable containers.  

**Students must wear CLA gear (shirts/hoodies) that must be visible at all times.  Students not wearing CLA gear at the time of departure will not attend the trip. There will not be a way for students to obtain a shirt that morning, so plan accordingly.**


From the Principal's Desk

I was gone for a couple of days last week, and enjoyed a short vacation in South Carolina, reconnecting with friends from my home in Pennsylvania.  In chapel this week, I shared with the students how enjoyable it was to spend time fellowshiping with friends who share my faith, and who challenge me as a person, father, and friend.  Looking forward to how some of our students, after spending years together at CLA, will be able to count lifelong friendships as one of the benefits of their CLA experience!

Blessings,

        Mr. Horning
