 Child Development Center UpdateBuilding a Foundation for a Lifetime of Learning
"It is he who saved us and chose us for His holy work, not because of what we have done, but because that was His plan." - 2 Timothy 1:9
Longview School District Superintendent Suzanne Cusick recognized Three Rivers Christian School as an Early Literacy Partner School. A plaque was recently presented to TRCS in recognition of this achievement. Our Center continues to be committed to success in excellence as we partner with children, family and community in the name of Jesus!
It is with honor that I acknowledge my Administrative team members JoAnne Dodge, Vicki Fortner, Linda Mills, Sue Siegel, Cindy Siegel and Brenda LeMonds for their outstanding work efforts. Your dedication to our ministry is a blessing to us all!
We have a wonderful, dedicated staff of 40 members that brings their own unique, God given strengths, talents and interests to the students of their classrooms. They provide an environment which cultivates rich relationships and allows children to become secure, confident learners in Christ. It is with great appreciation that I thank each of them for a job well done!
We are looking forward to our summer program "TRCS Camp 2013!" Campers are anticipating VBS, 5 Day Clubs, field trips, swim lessons, community service projects, park outings, library visits, fishing, hiking, cooking, and a whole lot more! We are excited to experience the many opportunities for adventure, learning, exploring and basking in the world that God has created!
We will continue our Heart of Service community projects throughout our summer program. It is our goal to make a loving difference in the lives of others, as we minister to all children and families throughout Cowlitz County.
It is this time of the year that I become ever so aware of the many extraordinary people that make up our ministry and I am thankful for each and every one. May I take this opportunity to thank each of you for your continued support, prayers and gracious sharing with TRCS.
