CHAPEL

A great thanks to our 3 anchor women for the year, seniors Megan Davis, Chapman James, and Sydney Lackey. From personal experience to scriptural exposition, these “Senior Moment” legacy speakers richly blessed our campus with their messages. Our HS campus is littered with inspiring students who have powerful testimonies. Praise be to God who has sent everyone to us.
I want to close this year by thanking all those who sang, spoke, provided technical assistance, prepped the facilities, and even those at home who were not only readers of our Inside the Pride but pray-ers for the will and work of God - THANK YOU.
