Special Announcement

Exodus 34:  Thus the LORD passed before him and cried out, “The LORD, the LORD, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger and rich in kindness and fidelity.”
2 Corinthians 13:  Mend your ways, encourage one another, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.
John 3:  God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life.

 

Pope John XXIII modeled love and kindness for all the world to see. “See everything,” he said, “overlook a great deal; correct a little.”

Rosemary's Blessing:

Gracious God, slow my pace and soften my heart this Christmas. 

Keep me

from rushing through the season, but missing the Way . . .

from decorating the tree, but missing the Light . . .

from wrapping the gifts, but missing the Gift.

Say Nina and Kerry, "Who let in this old geezer in with that red cap?"

 

 

True?

– 100 years ago everyone owned a horse and only the rich had cars. Today everyone has cars and only the rich own horses.

 

 

 

 

Healing for Grace.

From our Dearest Becky:

Legacy Preparatory Charter Academy is now your drop off point for needed medical supplies such as gloves and masks. We are also combining this with a food pantry drive.

If you feel the need to help during this special time and can bring any or all of these needed medical supplies and/or food donations, Legacy will get them to the appropriate sites.

Hours are between 8 am and 4 pm Monday – Fridays. Week end hours by appointment only for large donations.

Location: 601 Accent Dr., Plano 75075

Please share share share !

 

 

Also from Becky:

Legacy has just spent the last week preparing to be closed for probably the year and yet still have school. We are fortunate that the Texas Education Agency and the Commissioner of Education  has allowed educators to continue to be paid if we make an attempt to instruct children while they are home.

Not only at Legacy, but educators around the state have been doing just that. Many districts like us will be starting online school or giving out instructional packets on Monday. We also started our food program back early last week and on Tuesday handed out over 1000 meals in one day. Every Monday now families can come and receive 7 days worth of food for each child in the home. For many families, especially for the ones who has a parent or two who has been laid off, it’s making a tremendous difference.

I am proud of my leadership team and what they have accomplished in one week’s time. But you know what’s even better? Knowing that Legacy is not unique. You will continue to hear wonderful stories of what school districts around the state of Texas are doing to meet the needs of families through food support and low tech and high tech learning. It’s a great time to be proud of your public school system!
