MR. WHEELER’S WEEKLY WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT
We can hardly contain our excitement as we prepare for GO Week 2026! What began months ago as planning meetings, team gatherings, and prayer has now grown into something truly special. Our local, regional, and international teams are ready—not just with packed bags, but with hearts prepared to serve.
GO Week is more than a trip. It’s a powerful opportunity for our students to step outside their comfort zones, build meaningful relationships, and be the hands and feet of Christ in communities near and far. Throughout the week, students will serve, learn, grow, and experience firsthand what it means to live out their faith in real and tangible ways.
This week carries a lasting impact—not only for the communities being served, but also for each student and leader who says “yes” to going. Lives will be touched, perspectives will be broadened, and seeds of faith will be planted that we trust will continue to grow long after the week ends.
We invite you to partner with us in this journey. Please join us in praying for safe travels, open hearts, meaningful connections, and lasting transformation for everyone involved.
Where you can find our TCS students during GO Week around the world:
📍 Italy
📍 London
📍 Ireland
📍 Spain
📍 Appalachia
📍 Kerrville
📍 Destin
📍Clarkston
📍North Carolina
Stay updated in ITP to find live content from our trips during that week.

LAST WEEK IN CHAPEL
Pastor JC Worley from Go Church preached this week’s HS chapel. He preached regarding exposing the reality of our relationship with God, inviting us to ask, “How would I describe my prayer life?” He noted that while Christians affirm a love for prayer, many struggle due to busyness, insecurity, or uncertainty. Yet prayer is beautifully simple: speaking with God and hearing from Him through His Word. In Matthew 6:8, Jesus reminds us that God already knows our needs, freeing us to pray with trust rather than pressure. He also highlighted The Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9–13) which provides a pattern for Christians to pray. Additionally, students were guided to the following useful acrostic regarding prayer: seek God’s Presence, Rejoice in who He is, Ask with childlike dependence, and Yield to His Kingdom and will. True prayer is relational and vulnerable, leading us to surrender with confidence, saying, “God, I want what You want more than I want what I want.”
Tutoring
If any subject is giving you trouble, or you just need a quiet place to study, Beta Club Tutoring is ready to help. Tutoring takes place officially on any in-school Thursday morning at 7:30.
Prom 2026 was truly one for the books!
Our night at the Newnan Centre was absolutely incredible—from the music and dancing to the laughter and memories made. What stood out the most was how well-behaved, respectful, and joyful our students were throughout the entire evening. They represented our school so well, and we couldn’t be more proud!
If you want to relive the fun, smiles, and unforgettable moments, be sure to check out the photo album—it perfectly captures just how special the night was.
A big congratulations to our Prom King and Queen, Bradley Burnett and Kristen Savoy!
Thank you to everyone who helped make this night such a success, especially our teacher chaperones.
