Angel Tree - A Package and a Promise!

ART STUDENTS MAKE ORNAMENTS FOR THE CHRISTMAS TREE

Mrs. Sarah Helen Mishoe’s art students combined an old fashion Christmas ornament making gathering with some new gadgets to deck the halls at TCA. The younger students used old Christmas cards to fashion their designs of stars, presents, winter scenes, and crosses along with generous amounts of glitter and glue. The 5th and 6th graders used discarded aluminum can tabs to create their ornaments. Each one is uniquely crafted by each child to represent their talent and passion. ALONG WITH THE ORNAMENTS,Christmas tags are placed on the tree as a part of giving back to our community. Students and families are asked to sponsor a needy child or an adult from the Disabilities Foundation of Lake City. Ornament tags contain the age, size, and a special wish to help you with your selection. Along with your donation of a present, you are asked to remember the person with your promise to pray for them during the year. This worthwhile project is sponsored by the Beta Clubs of TCA. Thank you for providing opportunities for our students to experience the joy of giving.

Kristian Moen, a 2007 TCA honor graduate has been given the opportunity to join the Eddie James Ministry Team. Kristian will be serving full time beginning December 8th. She will be ministering in the Philippines, Israel, and in other areas overseas. This particular group reaches out to the lost and hurting with a focus on youth in crisis. The ministry includes a powerful music, drama and dance team followed by teaching and preaching as well. They have a heart to reach our high school and college age youth for Christ with a message of rehabilitation and restoration through relationship building, character development, education, training and an intentional focus on assisting them toward finding and fulfilling their purpose. Jesus says these words (John 10:10) "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."

You can follow the Eddie James Ministry on the world wide web at http://www.ejworship.org
The artist and his ministry has a newly released CD listed as #20 on the gospel charts.

While touring in the states, Kristian will be in a different state approximately every three days. Kristian is currently a junior at Francis Marion University with a biology major. May God bless you on this journey.
