Our high school students have been busy brightening up the hallways with inspiring artwork!
Check out this beautiful poster created by Jacob Irvin with the help of Mrs. Hayden and a few friends. Jacob drew inspiration from Matthew 5:14-16:
“You are the light of the world . . . let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”
We love seeing our students use their creativity to share God’s Word and encourage others! 💡🙌
