Dedication: Part of HIStory

This coming Wednesday, September 30, will be a historic day at Sioux Center Christian School.   It’s the day that we’ll officially dedicate our building and welcome school supporters to join us in the celebration!

As we think about dedication, it’s important to focus on the reason for this dedication.  Yes, we have a beautiful new building.  We have spacious classrooms, hallways, and other workspaces that we can use as faculty, staff, and students.  We have spaces that better meet our needs with today’s students.  We're so thankful for what has been provided for SCCS.

But what I encourage all of us to remember is that the building itself is not the reason for the dedication.  

We dedicate our building to God:  His work, His plans, His school.

We dedicate to Him…

• the classrooms where students learn and grow
• the accessible hallways, elevator, and ramp where students move freely
• the music rooms where students sing praises
• the offices where we strive to serve faithfully
• the guidance, resource, and sensory rooms where students discover who they were created to be
• the inclusive education rooms where needs are met
• the cafeteria where we fellowship with others

Every time you walk by the cross on the front of the building and the mission statement in the front entry, may you be reminded of God’s story.

We dedicate the building to remind us that we are part of HIStory.  Our story is our testimony of what God has done, and we will continue His work through Sioux Center Christian School.

The Lord is good and His love endures forever; His faithfulness continues through all generations.

Thanks be to God!
