Family Service Hours Each family is required to perform 15 hours of service this school year. I am sending home the form on which you should record your service. If you need service hours, I need a person to track the number of service hours each family performs and send quarterly reminders to update them. Other examples of family service hours are attending School of Home, cleaning the grounds, serving on a committee(School Advisory, PTO, or Auction), or coaching your child’s CYO team.

Trunk or TreatOn Friday, October 29, we will celebrate Halloween and Day of the Dead with a trunk or treat. All families are invited to participate. The cost is $5 per student for a hot dog, chips, a drink, and a treat bag from the Socialights. We ask that you decorate your trunk and have treats for students as they come from car to car trick or treating. Students can also dress up in Halloween costumes. There will be prizes

for costumes and trunks. A separate flier is coming home from Tahisha Thomas-our Halloween Party Chairperson. Please call Tahisha if you have any questions at 913-389-5419.

Dear CTK Families,

Some days and weeks can be really, very difficult. Sometimes we have to make phone calls or have conversations with people that we wish we didn’t have to have, but I’ve discovered it’s best to do the difficult thing and see how things resolve themselves.

We as a faith-filled people don’t believe in things resolving themselves. We believe that God has a hand in everything we do. “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11

Every morning I read to the students from the book, Jesus Calling, by Sarah Young. Jesus’s message to us time and time again is “Come to me” and “Don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries.” Matthew 6:34

Sincerely, Cathy Fithian
