Area middle school students are invited to enter the 20th Annual Middle School Bridge Design Competition held at Concordia Lutheran High School.

Concordia Lutheran High School will be hosting a 24-hour Theater Festival for its students on Feb. 8 and 9 where they create, produce and showcase a new show within 24 hours.

The first alumni mentor program of the new year will feature the owner and general manager of Paul Davis Restoration.

Joy is a fruit of the Spirit. God’s joy is supernatural and can remain deep and abiding even when we are in the midst of hardship. It is not the absence of pain or difficult circumstances but learning to let God’s spirit fill us with his joy, regardless of our circumstances.
