March 1, 2021 OPPORTUNITY FOR PARENTS AND FAMILIES TO SERVE AT THIS YEAR'S RUMMAGE SALE Dear Parent, This year’s school Rummage Sale is going to be held on March 5th and 6th. SECA needs a strong fundraiser, and our school would greatly benefit from anything you could donate. Please drop off donations in the gym after the Wednesday service on the 3rd. However, there is yet another way you could be of help to our school: on Thursday March 4th we will be setting up the gym to prepare for the sale, and we will need some help. The greatest need is for set up on Thursday between 2pm and 7pm, and on Saturday, March 7th from 11am to 3pm to help clean up afterwards. If you can help, please fill out the slip below with your name and the times that when you are available to help. Thursday evening and Saturday afternoon are most important, but all help would be much appreciated! Please return your slip below to Bethany Cassata and to the school. Thank you for your support! In Christ, Pastor Krohn PK/bc I, will be able to help out at the Rummage Sale during these hours: (please circle the ones when you can help) Thursday: 12pm-1pm 1pm-2pm 2pm-3pm 3pm-4pm 4pm-5pm 6pm-7pm 7pm-8pm Saturday: 12pm-1pm 1pm-2pm 2pm-3pm 3pm-4pm Also please provide your phone number in case we need to contact you: .

Dear Parents, Since Revival Week was rudely interrupted by COVID, :-) we are going to continue it this week. We will be on chapel schedule Monday-Wednesday. The prayer groups will continue as well. Monday 2/22 - Evangelist Aaron Hillyard Tuesday 2/23 - Pastor Tim Young Wednesday 2/24 - Pastor Dave Cialini Thank you for your support, Pastor Krohn PK/bc

Church Family, We are cancelling church for tonight. The reason for this is that we have scattered reports of people in other families in our church that have either tested positive or believe they may have Covid. Since we have not had school this week, cancelling tonight gains us a lot. It means that anyone who caught the virus last Sunday should have had enough time to develop symptoms and know not to come in. We will be live streaming tonight. Aaron is going to do a Bible Study. Friday youth group, the Saturday College and Career activity, and the Sunday services will still all be held as scheduled. If you do not feel well, please do not attend. Thanks and pray for all the church families! PK

Church Family, Nikki Martineau did not have a fever but, because she was not feeling well, asked to have a COVID test. Unfortunately, she tested positive. Most importantly, she is doing well. We want to be both smart and safe. For that reason, the following activities are cancelled: - Wed church tonight - School the rest of the week - Soul winning on Friday. - Youth Group Tonight, we will NOT be having a virtual service. Please spend some time praying and talking about the Bible with your family instead. We will not switch to virtual learning for the school for this week. Essentially, we are going to take snow days for the next two days. The deacons and I are going to discuss the plan going forward. It is possible that we will have in person services on Sunday. It is also possible that we will switch to virtual. The same applies to school next week. We will let you know! At this point, I want to say that I am very thankful that we were able to survive as long as we did without a COVID problem. The church is going to be cleaned and disinfected very thoroughly. Some things to pray for: - That no one else will get sick - That those who are sick will recover quickly - That the deacons and I would have wisdom and the Lord's leading about any decisions we have to make - And, of course, always, the salvation of souls, the growth of Christians, and the glorification of God. I love you all. Praise the Lord! Pastor Krohn

December 14, 2020 SECA Christmas Party Reminder Dear Parent, We are just sending a reminder that this year SECA will be hosting the annual school-wide Christmas party on Friday, December 18th. The school-wide activities will begin at 12:05 pm. The school will be purchasing pizza for everyone for lunch that day. Please have students bring a snack and drink to share with the school. Students are allowed to dress down. Boys may wear jeans or wind pants, and girls may wear culottes. Thank you for your support. In Christ, Pastor Krohn JK/bc/sh

December 14, 2020 CELL PHONE POLICY UPDATE Dear Parent, The following outlines SECA’s cell phone policy. Students are allowed to bring a cell phone to school and use it during the lunch period, before, and after school. All other times a student’s phone must be in their personal locker or backpack. Violation 1 of this rule will result in confiscation for the day, and the phone will be given back at 2:45 pm before dismissal. Violation 2 of this rule will result in confiscation until a parent contacts me. This is to make sure that they are aware of the issue and the consequences of another violation. This may lead to a cell phone being kept overnight. Violation 3 of this rule will result in no cell phone use for the rest of the year. If they still needed to bring a phone on campus, they would have to turn it in at the start of the day and get it back at the end of the day. In all violations, the student also gets a character essay. Thank you so much for your cooperation. In Christ, Pastor Krohn JK/bc/sh
