Renewanation Update
We are excited to officially welcome Grace Academy in Hagerstown, Maryland as Renewanation’s second affiliate school. We will hold their kickoff banquet on April 29th. Please pray as our Renewanation team partners with Grace to build a crowd for this event. Also, HB 599 was defeated in the Virginia Senate. This bill that would have given tax credits to individuals and businesses who donate to private education passed the House of Delegates but was killed by senators who do not want to give parents the choice of where their children attend school. This battle is far from over.
PCA Kroger Cards
Parkway Christian Academy still has Kroger cards for anyone who needs them. If you haven’t used your card in the last 3 months, you are required to get a new one. The school gets 5% profit of the total receipts each month. This is an easy way for you to support the school. School office: 982-2400
Instruments Needed
As part of the PCA Fine Arts School, we are beginning an instrumental program and we have two fine teachers who are offering classes and lessons in that area. David Feldman (plays cello in Roanoke Symphony Orchestra) in strings and Lise’ Brinkley (plays in Winds of the Blue Ridge and Valley Chamber Orchestra) in brass, woodwinds and percussion. We are grateful that God has led these two committed Christians, who are also wonderful musicians, to help us develop an instrumental program at PCA.
We have received two gifts of instruments to help us with this program. Pastor Jeff Keaton was the first, with a gift of a clarinet. It is now being used by one of our students. A beautiful tuba was given to the school by Rita Lilley in memory of her husband, Dr. Larry Lilley. We appreciate those gifts very much. If you have an instrument in the closet or under the bed that you would like to see put to good use, contact the PCA office @ 982-2400.
Sanctuary Expansion
We are grateful to God and the men of our church for the completion of our sanctuary expansion. We have added 100 seats to be used when the front sections of the sanctuary reach 80% capacity. Let’s fill up this new section and then we’ll take the other back wall out and add another 100 seats. Every seat represents a never dying soul.
