Prayer Concerns

2. Gina Edward’s Dad is having health issues in Mexico.   A praise that he had surgery in Mexico and is doing much better.
3. Lizzie Lane’s mom, Dawn Lane, has been in the hospital the last couple of weeks.  Prayers please as she is at home, but requires a lot of help.  Please stop by the Information Table to sign up to bring a meal to bless this family.
4. Bonita Holtkamp, mom to Jaslyn, was diagnosed with stage 4 gallbladder cancer.  She has discontinued treatment, as it was not working, and is on Hospice.  Please stop by the Information Table to sign up to bring a meal to bless this family.

ITEMS TO MENTION TO ALL STUDENTS AND PARENTS
1.  Please empty liquid out of any cups before you put them in the trashcan.  The clean-up crew thanks you ahead of time.

2. Please show respect to all of the adults on Friday.  We have hall monitors that help keep order in the hallways and kitchen for when students are not in class.  These adults are a huge blessing to those of us that are teaching.  Please be respectful when you are reminded to do something.
3. Please be considerate of others if you are sick and review the sickness policy.  Please don’t attend classes or volunteer if you have had a fever or contagious illness in the last 24 hours.  Thank you for your consideration as we don’t want to share our germs and we have many with compromised immune systems.
4. Please recycle soda cans in the container by the soda machines.
5. Please don’t use the doorbell on the south doors by the office.  That is for the office only when the office doors are locked during the week
6. PLEASE tell your female family members that NO Feminine Products are allowed to be flushed in the Asbury toilets, please.
7. Just a reminder that Asbury is a no nut church, so PSHP should not have anything with nuts.
8. Just a reminder that no children should be left unattended at Asbury when they are not in class if they are 12 and younger.  An older sibling that is at least 15, may be responsible for the younger sibling, if the older sibling is not in class at the time.
