Consider this - Consider that the destruction and decay in the world begins with you. Your choices, actions, and deeds breathe acres of rubble into existence. How can we continue to have hope in the midst of our created chaos? Please join Candor, Linfield's American Sign Language performance team, for an introspective look at personal responsibility in a universe full of choices. Is it possible that there IS only one choice that can truly save us from our destruction? Performances will be held from May 1-3 at 7:00 p.m., and there will also be a matinee performance at 2:00 p.m. on May 3. Admission is free!

Linfield's annual River Trip has grown to become the most popular High School SLAMO over the past five years. This summer, 56 students and teachers will be camping under the stars for five days and four nights on the South Fork of the American River (east of Sacramento). Daily adventures, including river rafting, canyoneering, and rock climbing, will be guided by the professionals at Rock-N-Water. The outdoor activities and the times of worship (and s'mores) around the campfire provide many students with the highlight of their summer. The trip is open to all incoming 10th, 11th, and 12th grade students, and the cost is $500. Submit this registration form along with a $100 deposit to Miss Amber Young no later than April 11 to save your spot!

The Linfield community is enriched each year by the addition of students from around the world; domestic students currently sit side by side with students from Korea, Norway, New Zealand, China, Vietnam, Japan, Taiwan, and other countries. This International Program is vital as Linfield continues to address the global nature of our world, especially in the realm of higher education and in the fulfillment of the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20). 

Linfield offers students the choice of an "in-house" Host Family Homestay program, and we are currently looking for families who will welcome our international students into their homes and make them a part of their American family. There will be an interest meeting in HS Room 114 on May 8, 2014 from 6:30-7:30 p.m. to address the following considerations:

• Host home application process (includes fingerprinting, home visit, etc.)
• Expectations from students / host families (including bedroom, Internet access, etc.)
• Financial arrangements (hosting includes a monthly stipend)

If you and your family "have love and room to share," and if you welcome the opportunity to make the world a little smaller and would like to be considered as a host family, please email Gay Bennett or contact her office at (951) 676-8111 ext. 3203.
