✨ Today’s chapel was jam-packed with excitement for our SOCS family!💙 Our cheer team brought the energy, and our middle schoolers performed a skit to help spread awareness for our upcoming Walk-a-Thon. Together, we’re working toward raising $25,000 for new fencing, a security system, and bathroom renovations.🙌 Mr. Dan shared about our new Mentorship Program, and Mr. Corner introduced his role as our new Safety & Security Director.All of this ties back to our theme verse for the 25–26 school year:“Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.” – Ephesians 6:11 🛡️⚔️Now more than ever, we’re called to be bold, brave, and ARMOR UP!#SOCS #ChristianEducation #Walkathon #ArmorOfGod #BeBoldBeBrave #CommunityOfFaith #Ephesians611 #FaithInAction #ChristianSchoolLife #RaisingChampions #KingdomEducation
