Let's Go To The Movies

I Heard The Bells

We have a month packed with Christmas activities and celebrations. So, to kick off the holiday season this week, our staff and students went to see, I Heard the Bells.

I Heard the Bells is a faith-filled Christmas movie that tells the story behind Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s classic Christmas carol, “I Heard The Bells on Christmas Day.” The movie is set inside Longfellow’s Cambridge home in the 1860s.

Tragedy strikes the family when his wife dies in a fire accident. Devastated, Longfellow embarks on a journey of grief that eventually leads him back to God. It also leads him back to his children and the hope that comes through Jesus, who’s the inspiration behind Longfellow’s classic Christmas carol.

It was inspiring to learn the back story on this carol and the life of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Our students enjoyed it!

Today we graduated three young

men who completed their 15+ month

program. What a day of celebration

it was!

It was a day filled with much thankfulness and praise to God for His transforming power. These students have been given a great gift from their parents and they have all matured physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Please keep these families in your prayers as they begin their next chapter together. Each one is on a different path, but as Philippians 1:6 states:

We are certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue His work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.

Congratulations, guys!
