Thursday: Our very own, Dan Quist, spoke in chapel. His engaging talk encouraged and challenged students in their faith. We must be aware of the false realities/illusions of the world's messages and cling to God's message. This message gives us truth to live by. To watch the chapel CLICK HERE

Cliff Wiener & TCHS Choirs

HIGH SCHOOL CHAPEL

Tuesday: Mr. Wiener's brother, Cliff spoke. He and his family are missionaries with YWAM, based out of Perth, Australia. Cliff asked the question, “what does it mean to seek God with all your heart?" First understand who God is. Then move toward God and he will run to you. God will also give you the strength you need to follow him. Cliff has recently developed online discipleship resources.

Thursday: We were blessed by the high school choirs, along with both string and brass ensembles. To watch the chapel CLICK HERE

MIDDLE SCHOOL CHAPEL

Tuesday: Mr. Wiener's brother, Cliff, spoke. He talked about glasses and how you need the correct prescription. We are often asking what other people think and what we think of ourselves. We need God's "prescription" to see him and life clearly. God loves us, knows us, thinks of us and wants the best for us!
