DEAR VCS PARENTS AND FRIENDS,
April 7, 2022
 
Dear VCS Parents and Friends,
 
Continuing with the “God is” series, I want us to look at “The LORD is righteous.” From Ps 11:7 we have, “For the LORD is righteous; he loves righteous deeds; the upright shall behold his face.” What does that me for us? First, when we were born without any righteousness and thus could not have any relationship with a righteous God. Secondly, God imputed His righteousness to His Son, Jesus, such that when Jesus died on the cross, he made a way for us to obtain God’s righteousness. Lastly, when we accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of our life, God imputes His righteous on us. There is no other way to gain that righteousness. When God’s imputes that righteousness, we can then have a full relationship with God. In 1 Pe 3:13a, we have this great promise, “For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer.”
 
The next regularly scheduled VCS Board meeting will be May 3, @ 6pm. If you have items you would like to be considered for that meeting, please forward those items to me no later than April 19th.
 
The meeting that school board had this week was “lively” as the discussion centered around the presentation of the building committee. The committee presented their findings regarding possible portable classrooms and the new school plans. Some exciting things are coming!
 
On April 20th, the Secondary students – gr. 6-12 will be going on a ½ day field trip. Please sign and return the permission slips with the associated monies by Friday Apr. 8th.
 
Coming up on April 21-22, those students in grades 3-10 whose families are participating in the Wisconsin School Choice will be taking the state tests. These students will need to provide a set of headphones to take portions of these tests. This will result in all students bring cold lunches – no microwaves available.
 
At the bottom of this newsletter are some links/resources for you to consider regarding some trends in our society. They talk about the CRT/Woke ideological encroachment into our schools and churches. I want to thank Amy H. for providing these links.
 
It is not too early to mark your calendars for the Awards Night/Spring Corporate meeting – May 26th.
 
The Freshman have been participating in a drama class and will be putting on an original production, “Homicide in the Heights” on May 13th @ 7PM here at the school. To make it more of a festive event, they are asking for some “best bakers” to donate a dessert with the proceeds going to the purchase of a new bus. Additionally, the class is asking for a $10 donation per person with all proceeds going to the new bus.
 
Pressing forward for His glory,
 
Ron Brace
