Samoan Choir CD Fundraiser

Yesterday were able to visit all seven of the Anchorage churches that support Anchorage Junior Academy. It was a whirl wind tour to introduce the new Pre-kindergarten/Kindergarten teacher for this upcoming school year. The last church that we visited was Anchorage Samoan Seventh-day Adventist Church and were blessed to hear some of their singing. Here is a snippet of what we heard.

Christmas Wreaths

A couple of parents are making Christmas wreaths to help raise money for the worthy student fund at Anchorage Jr. Academy.
Last Friday they came and worked with grades 5 through 8 to make some Christmas wreaths as part of our Art class. The wreaths are available for $20 each. If you would like a wreath find a student and let them know or just stop by the school, and can even make your request online.
