Lincoln Lutheran will not have school on Monday, March 22nd. Third quarter ends Friday, March 19th and we will have a brief mid-semester break so that everyone can catch their breath before tackling the last quarter of the school year. Please note that the office will also be closed on Monday, but that several teams will still hold practices. Check the school calendar for details.
The middle school's third and final fun night of this year was March 5. There were many middle school students that were very excited. All the esentials for a great fun night were there: the music, snacks, high school helpers, dodgeball setup, music and of course, the excited middle school students.
Senior Lydia Pomerenke volunteered to help at the fun night. She said, "It was the best one ever!" Lydia thought this fun night's music was really good and that a lot of middle school students were dancing. Eighth grader Grant Doak said he really enjoyed going to the fun night. Grant and eighth grader Taylor Pate both thought the music selection was too old and they also wished there could be more variety in snacks. Not all eighth graders thought the same about the music, though. Eight h grader Mckensie Oneth thought the music was lovely.
There are some middle schoolers that would make some changes to the fun nights, but overall they all love them and enjoy attending.
On Saturday, March 13, 390 people gathered for the 15th annual Lincoln Lutheran Gala. They enjoyed a nice, sit-down dinner while the high school Jazz Band played and two students - senior Jessica Polk and junior Taylor Katt - spoke. The attendees took part in both a live auction and a silent auction.
This year, the special project is the purchase of new school vans. $92,000 was raised to put towards the project. The rest of the money that was raised will go to the general operating budget. The evening went well, but a great goal for next year is 500 attendees.
For the four consecutive year of going to state, the Lincoln Lutheran speech team has made an impression that has let them have a chance to go to a state-wide meet in Kearney. The people representing LL are Lyz Kuhn, Jenna Karlin, Taylor Katt, and Natalie Greiss. They are going to be performing "Organ Recital", which is about a young couple trying to enjoy a dinner while sitting next to some obnoxiously loud, old women. You can only imagine what happens when the young man tries to propose to his girlfriend (and it doesn't end pretty).
The very sad thing about speech ending is that it means the seniors and Mrs. Kuhn are leaving LL. The past few years have been so much fun due to the zany, crazy things that go on when Mrs. Kuhn is around. Some of those things would be the van rides to and from meets, the random games we played in between rounds, and the overall wacky practices that made coming in after school enjoyable. These times will be missed, but at least team members have stories to tell their kids when they are old.
In Psalm 139:16 says, "Your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." God had a plan for us. We plan and organize our schedules everyday. All of the extra curricular activities get in the way of what should be on the top of our game plan, God.
We all lead busy lives but the order of our priorities should always be the same. Many times God gets pushed to the side when if comes to the list of things to do. Things such as prayer and church are forgotten. We need to be determined to have God in our day to day life. The devil will try to set us up expecially when we have to much to do and to little time. He wants to take our time and set our priorities on something else other than God. Life is so busy for students and adults that it is like a blur. But if we walk with God we have relaxation and if we start the day off right with God at the top of the list he will look after us and help us through the day. We need to learn to turn to Him instead of turning away from Him. We look to Him not because we have to but because we want to.
