It is hard to believe that spring is almost upon us – almost as hard to believe as the craziness of this winter. Spring is a time of renewal. It is a time of hope. It is a time of looking ahead. I am doing a lot of “looking ahead” these days. My two kids, Andrew and Rebecca, were able to shadow at Westminster Catawba Christian School last week – which gave them a great picture of what the future will be like for them (and they both had great days at WCCS!). We continue to ready our home for a timely sale – and will soon be on the hunt for a new home in Rock Hill. I have had the privilege of talking with several WCCS faculty and staff members about the remainder of this year and next. I have even been a part of a couple interviews for prospective faculty/staff members for the 14-15 school year.
As I look to next year, I have a lot of “hopes.” I hope that our transition to WCCS is a smooth one – everything from the responsibilities that I will take on to my wife managing our move to our kids adjusting well to the change of schools. I hope that God provides us with the ability to sell our home and purchase a new one in a timely fashion (we are praying for a late June move). I hope that our family is able to transition to our new church home at Westminster Presbyterian Church. I hope to establish strong relationships in a short period of time with the entire school community – board, faculty, staff, parents, students, alumni, grandparents, future students, etc. And, I hope that God will see fit to use me to lead WCCS well. While the list of “hopes” seems long, I do have what I believe to be a GREATEST HOPE.
Before I share that greatest hope, I have a favor to ask. Would you be willing to step out and leave a REPLY to this post sharing your family’s GREATEST HOPE for WCCS in the next year. This would go a long way in helping me get to know you better. I believe it would also get all of us thinking and hoping and praying to those ends. All you need to do is to click on the “LEAVE A REPLY” button below. Please share your greatest hope, and then, to help me out, list your family members and how they are connected to the school. This will be a big step in helping me get to know more about you.
Thanks in advance for your participation. I will follow up with my GREATEST HOPE soon.
