Craig's List for January

The following were nominated to be on Craig's List for the month of January:

Alexis Harber received the Pride Award letter.  This is for excellence in academics for the 1st semester at Otwell Middle School.  Alexis is quickly becoming known at Otwell as quite the well rounded student with her involvements during and after school.

Cora Richard received an award at her preschool ceremony. She was awarded a certificate for showing tremendous patience at all times during school.


Clayton Whitt completed a dynamic writing contribution to the Cumming Local publication. We are so proud of him for remembering what Christmas is all about. He is becoming a fine young man. Clayton is an avid writer who has a bright future in front of him.

Malachi Stewart's team won the Glory For Christ Football League Championship this year. He also played in the National Championship Playoffs for Christian Homeschool Football in Panama City Beach in November on the J/V and Varsity Teams. Malachi is a versatile player who always encouraged his teammates, and was a leader on and off the field.

Spencer Allison - Won 1st place in Social Science Fair in Anthropology for the 8th Grade. Spencer quietly embraces challenges and is unsatisfied until he masters the issue that he faces.

Lindsey Allison - Went to a basketball camp for 5th - 8th grades @ West Forsyth High School, won the top award for the camp - Best Hustler! Most coaches will tell you that this is a skill set that cannot be taught. Lindsey obviously has a fire about her that the Lord has put within her.

Jonathan Kirby has been nominated due to his recent achievements at work. He was promoted with his employer into a job that combines his occupation with one of his passions-photography. It is amazing how the Lord can put our passions together to bring Him glory.

Ricky Waters has been nominated due to his diligence in finishing a project called Charlottetown Terrace Senior housing in Charlotte, NC.  He oversaw all operations and construction.  His guidance made sure the project was completed early and under budget.

January's Pastors Perspective

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
My prayer for us all as we march into 2012 is that we would continue to be soul winners for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  We celebrate His birth, and understand that He came to seek and to save that which was lost-Luke 19:10.

Jesus loves Pine Crest and Pine Crest loves Jesus, and I have no doubt that because of this love, we are going to witness lost people being saved in 2012!
