Chico Christian School & the Beckers

For the past year our daughter Ava has been a student at Chico Christian School. She has had an amazing year in kindergarten. At Chico Christian the students have the academic subjects during the first part of the day and then they are offered electives in the afternoon. Ava has been able to take Spanish and music this year. A couple weeks ago Ava was struggling with the fact that she would no longer be at Chico Christian or with her beloved Mrs. B next year while we are in Kenya.

This past week I have been working with the principal there to see if we could form a partnership with the school that would help us stay connected and give the students insight into missions and missionary kids. It has been exciting to have it unfold- we are going to be the Chico Christian School missionary family! Our family is scheduled to share at Chapel in May and I will be sharing with the teachers at their faculty meeting.  It is great to be getting this chance to talk with Christian educators who already love kids and are on their own mission field at school everyday. Along with us sharing with them we are looking forward to them sharing with us while we are gone. Each class at Chico Christian will get a chance to write to us and the students at Rift Valley Academy. Our hope is that this will help open the kids' eyes to missions around the world and how God gives us all a chance to be a part of spreading the gospel. Yes, even kids! They will also be praying for us! What a blessing to have an entire school praying for us!
