Online Health Sign-up for High School Students
If you are in need of completing your high school health credit, the Spring 1 session of online Health begins January 14. If you would like to be enrolled in this class, you must fill out the form at this link by Friday January 4 https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?fromEmail=true&formkey=dEJZNUFJWENFaTBlYW83cHBnNzdxcmc6MQ. You will be charged an extra $350 on your tuition bill for this class if you are not enrolled in a study hall, early dismissal or late arrival for the 2018-2019 school year. If you took Health in 8th grade here at Faith or have taken Health at Las Vegas Day School, Adelson, Cornerstone, Alexander Dawson or The Meadows in 7th or 8th grade, your high school Health requirement is already complete and you do not need this class. I’m sorry but CCSD middle school Health is not cleared to count for high school credit by the state. Contact Dan Buikema at buikemad@flhsemail.org if you have any questions. (1/4)
Due to an overwhelming response, we have completed our registration early and have filled all the spots for the Baja Bound Mexico mission team - January 2019!! All Glory to God!

How Much Do You Love Jesus?
When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it. Matthew 13:46
In one of the most unique corporate take-overs ever, Stanley Tam legally transferred 51 per cent of the shares of his company to God. He started United States Plastic Corporation with thirty-seven dollars in capital. When he gave his business back to God, annual revenues were less than two hundred thousand dollars. But Stanley believed God would bless his business, and he wanted to honor God from the get-go. At that point, most of us would have been patting ourselves on the back. Not Stanley. He felt convicted for keeping 49 per cent to himself. After reading the parable of the merchant who sold everything to obtain the pearl of great price, he made a decision to divest himself of all his shares. He said, ‘A man can eat only one meal at a time, wear only one suit of clothes at a time, drive only one car at a time. All this I have. Isn’t that enough?’ So on January 15, 1955, every share of stock was transferred to God, and Stanley became a salaried employee of the company he started. Before he was through, Stanley gave away more than 120 million dollars to the cause of Christ. If you want to measure the depth of your love for Christ, look at your calendar and your credit card statement. They don’t lie. How you spend your time and money are the two best barometers of your true priorities. Is Christ your pearl of great price? He wants to be. He deserves to be.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me divest in myself and invest in what You are doing. In Jesus’ Name, Amen
Heavenly Father, help me divest in myself and invest in what You are doing. In Jesus’ Name, Amen
