Hosana, Loud Hosana
Be Known to Us in Breaking Bread
'Twas on that Night
All Glory Laud and Honor
Were You There?
Alas ! Did My Saviour Bleed?
The Friend of Sinners Dies
Come See the Place Where Jesus Lay
When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
He Did Not Die in Vain
Christ the Lord Has Risen Today
Thine is the Glory
Low in the Grave He Lay
This is the Day the Lord Hath Made
Praise to the Lord the Almighty
Not all the Blood of Beasts
The Day of Resurrection
Crown Him with Many Crowns
All Hail the Power of Jesus Name
I Know My Redeemer Lives
O Sons and Daughters, Let Us Sing
Come, Let Us Join Our Cheerful Songs

(Monday, 17 March 2003)

New Page ... St. Patrick's Day is upon us!  Includes songs, activities, recipes and more !

New Page ... Screwtape Letters Worksheets ... The next ten chapters (11-20) are back up, new and revised ... keep watching as more of the chapters will be going up shortly

Hugs to Kuwait - Adopt a Soldier ... Do your part on the war against terror, have your family adopt a soldier serving our country.  Your children will enjoy sending letters and homemade delectables to him or her !

Adopt our Troops ... Join the Presidential Prayer Team.  They will assign a specific soldier in any branch of the service you desire to pray for!  They even have a special certificate you may print off with your soldier's name for each of your children !

IN GOD WE TRUST ... WRITE IT ON THE OUTSIDE OF ALL YOUR ENVELOPES!
A couple of post offices in Texas have been forced to take down small posters that say "IN GOD WE TRUST."  The law, it is said, is being violated with respect to electioneering posters (is God running for office)?  A radio show has proposed that we all write "IN GOD WE TRUST" on the back of all our mail.  Writing "IN GOD WE TRUST" prior to posting our mail is not only simple, but inexpensive.  "IN GOD WE TRUST" is our national motto which is written on all the money we use to buy those stamps.  Let us take back our nation from those who think anything referring to God should be removed from our national life.  If you like this idea, please pass it on, and DO IT.  The idea of writing or stamping "IN GOD WE TRUST" on our envelopes sounds good to me.  

Department of Homeland Security ... Due to the state of affairs in the world today, it may prove helpful for your family to visit this site from time to time to determine if there is anything you need to do for the protection of those you love

New Page ... Conjugating Verbs ... Amazingly and sadly, conjugating verbs is fast becoming a lost art for most American children.  Yet, they will be exposed to conjugating verbs when they start learning a foreign language.  Young children that love to repeat nursery rhymes and stories in their sing-song voices love to verbally conjugate verbs.  It is fast, painless and can be fun.  The verb hop, for example, is hilarious to conjugate with young children when you are hopping while conjugating.  Snorting while conjugting the verb snort makes the exercise fun and memorable.  Conjugating in this fashion is painless and easy only taking 2-3 minutes daily.  By the time your young scholar learns about helping verbs and state of being verbs, not to mention first person, second person and third person -- they will all have become old friends for your child.  Conjugating Verbs PDF file includes flashcards for conjugating, first person, second person and third person and more.  Conjugating Chart PDF file is a simple, easy to use format for conjugating.

New Page ... A Truly Christian Curriculum ... Quentin Johnston, Academic Dean of Whitefield College has graciously volunteered to help others in learning why A Truly Christian Curriculum is imperative for a covenant child with his informative and thought-provoking essay.  

New ... President's Day Word Searches ... 1-3 Grade Word Search PDF File, 3-8 Grade Word Search PDF File, Challenge Word with Secret Message Search PDF File
