WCA Impacts Lives for the Lord WCA administrators received a surprise visit from alumnus, Breon Allen, during their weekly administrative meeting on Tuesday, January 12. Breon graduated from WCA in 2011 and attended Snow College in Utah where he played football before transferring to Eastern Carolina University to finish his college football career. Breon has most recently been coaching college football at Minot State University in North Dakota. He will be attending a developmental football league training camp in February as the next step in pursuing his semi-professional football career. When asked what he appreciated most about Warner Christian Academy, and what made a difference in his life , Breon said, “The close family environment, definitely!” He felt like a lot of kids do not feel the love at other schools because there are so many students in the classroom and you can get lost. He also felt that “going to church on Thursdays… and being able to touch God” had a huge impact on his life. Breon was grateful for the family environment here at Warner Christian Academy because it made a difference in his life and he said, “I don’t know where I would be if I didn’t come here!” WCA administrators all agree that the highlight of any day is to have an opportunity to visit with WCA alumni and get updates about how the Lord has been leading in their lives. It is a blessing to know that Warner Christian Academy continues to impact lives for the kingdom. Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift! Words from the Superintendent... “...For I am persuaded beyond doubt (am sure) that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things impending and threatening nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus Jesus our Lord...” - Romans 8: 38-39 As we quickly approach that time of year when Valentine’s Day becomes the main focus of the greeting card and confectionery industries, the term “love” is thrown around in a multitude of ways for marketing purposes. But, I believe, it behooves us to consider once again the meaning of true love, and what true love truly looks like. I have often heard that “love” can be broken down into three types; I love you “if,” I love you “because,” and I love you “regardless”. The first type requires that an individual do something to earn someone’s love. The second type requires that someone has earned someone’s “love” because of something they’ve done. The third type requires nothing, and is therefore the only type of true love. This is also the definition of Christ’s love. In reading the scripture quoted above, we read how nothing at all can separate us from the love of God; no demonic powers, nothing we fear or dread and nothing we say or do. There is nothing at all, in all of creation that could separate us from God’s love, or stop Him from loving us. It’s very much how we love as parents. We love our children despite anything they may say or do. We may not like, or agree, with certain behaviors, but the children themselves we still love. Imagine how much more so is it with God? His love for us is so much more than the love we have for anyone else. God’s love is unconditional love! If we are willing to accept His free gift of His Son, Jesus Christ, no matter what you say or do, God’s love will never fail. In that, you can be assured! Happy Valentine’s Day! In Christ’s love, Mark W. Tress School Superintendent For a service project Mrs. Margison’s second grade class wrote cards and collected items to give to residents and nurses at Bishops Glen in Holly Hill. They packed fifty bags of candy for the residents living there and filled two baskets for the nurses to enjoy. The children were able to bless others and learning the selfless act of giving through serving others. 2015-2016 School Work Days February 20 March 12 April 9 May 21 8:00AM-2:00PM Come When You Can...Leave When You Must Snacks and Beverages Supplied Please RSVP to [email protected] Bluez Newz Continues Parent Teacher Fellowship Update...
