Elementary Thanksgiving Feast 國小感恩節聚餐

Dear Parents,

The Thanksgiving Feast is fast approaching. It will be TOMORROW, on Friday. Thanksgiving is so much about coming together and being thankful for all we have. We truly feel like we are doing this at MAK.

Here are some of the last minute details for you.

  1. The Feast will begin promptly at 11:00.  We will all gather in the MPR at tables and say a prayer. We really want this to be a special time with your children so we are asking that everyone be seated by 11:00.
  2. The gate will open at 10:45. 
  3. Grade 3 will also meet in the MPR, but will go the the Shark Cafe upstairs after the prayer to eat.
  4. There is no need to sign in. You can go straight to the MPR.
  5. There will be assigned seating. Families will sit together. Please check the chart to see your table number.

親愛的家長,

感恩節快到了,就是明天星期五!感恩節是讓我們大家聚集,感謝我們所有的一切。我們真的覺得我們正在MAK 做這件事。

一下有一些要記得的詳細信息:

  1. 感恩節聚餐準時11:00開始。我們將在MPR桌子禱告。我們希望這是一個與您好字在一起的特別時光,所以我們要求每個人在11:00之間就座。
  2. 學校的鐵門將10:45開門。
  3. 3年級也會在MPR,但會在祈禱後上樓去 Shark Cafe 吃飯。
  4. 明天不需要簽到,可以直接去 MPR。
  5. MPR 桌子有分配座位。請查看這個檔案看您的桌號。

We thank God for the project he has brought our way, and are happy to share with you this year’s Giving Project! Our MAK Family will have an opportunity to bless our neighbors in the Jia Cheng community with Winter Care Packages. Due to their poor living conditions and financial strain, many of them do not have basic necessities for the coming winter weather. Our teachers have been working closely with a social worker from this area, visiting low-income, high needs seniors in Jia Cheng community. Each class, K-12, will

“Sponsor a Senior” in need and put together a Care Package for the senior based on their wish list. Students will also have a chance to think of other ways they can bless the seniors as we grow in understanding what a “lifestyle of service” is. The Giving Project has already begun, and we hope to complete the packages before Christmas break.

In the future, we hope to continue partnering with our local community workers to meet the ongoing needs of these seniors and others as needs arise. Stay tuned for more details in the future!
