Students at Faith Lutheran School in Plano, Texas recently observed “Celebrate Life Week” at the school with a variety of special events, donations collections and unique programs.
“Students in preschool through fifth grade studied from a special curriculum designed to celebrate all stages of life,” explained Faith Lutheran School third grade teacher Cheryl Wildauer of Allen. “Students in sixth through eighth grades attended two sessions of a special program called “180-Degrees”, an abstinence-until-marriage program designed to help youth recognize the consequences of premarital sex and the beauty of a healthy marriage relationship.”
Pastor Karim Baidaoui of POBLO-TX (People of the Book Lutheran Outreach) spoke to students about his missionary work in the United States and across the globe. A special collection of food and other pantry items was gathered for POBLO throughout the week. Student Council members picked up items from home room classes each day and helped with loading items for transport.
