It is an exciting time of year at Dakota Memorial School. School is back in session with some of the most amazing teachers and staff. Not to mention the fantastic students who are ready to learn, grow, and experience life through educational activities.
So many things go into providing extraordinary educational opportunities for our kids. My favorite, and the one I believe leads to success for our kids, is our belief that each of our children is a child of God. Even when others don’t see what we see in our kids, God does. The Bible is full of examples of God’s amazing love for kids—He wants the best for them.
At the start of each school day, on all three campuses, our teachers and staff come together to pray for our kids, each other, and the school day. This picture is from the Fargo campus on the first day of school. This expression of love happens every day on each campus.
As you pray for our kids please include prayers for our teachers, administration, and support staff. There is power in prayer, and I know your prayers are appreciated!
Thank you for being difference-makers in the lives of the precious boys and girls we serve!
Blessings,
Tim
