Nearing The End!

Today was the last day of Institute classes! Everyone was excited and somehow energized in spite of the late nights and little sleep! A wave of chatter and yearbook signing was found in the halls of the school. Students were enjoying the ‘newly decorated’ student lounge, thanks to the senior class of 2010! Although today was a day of completion for the academics, there are still a few more activities to be involved in. Spring Concert is coming up quickly, Saturday, May 29, 2010. Choir has a full day Sunday as well as attending the afternoon Baccalaureate service for graduates. Monday is the final day for goodbyes and well-wishes as the graduates of 2010 turn their tassels and start a new journey! Penn View would appreciate prayers during these last few days of busy school activity! Summer is peeking around the corner and we are ready!

Auction Weekend and Yearbooks

Penn View’s annual auction was held this past weekend. Being shortened to two days instead of three, it was a little bit nicer for the faculty and students working and setting up. We are thankful for the help of everyone and the support of all who came. Auction is always an exciting and beneficial time, but it is YOU who makes it happen. On another note, this Tuesday, May 18, will be our Yearbook Chapel. Here we will be presenting the yearbook to the students and making the dedication. This is always a fun time, getting the books, looking at pictures and signing pages! This year is our biggest yearbook yet!! We are excited about the outcome! Things are wrapping up here at school as the last two weeks are quickly moving by. We are grateful for the GREAT year God has given us!

Campus Days Is Here!

God Answers Prayer!

She has some broken ribs and some internal damage but the doctors don’t believe they need to do surgery. She is pretty banged up and will no doubt be in pain for quite awhile. Thank God He had His hand on her life. Thank you to all who have been praying! There is nothing like God’s family supporting families who need Him the most! We pray God will continue to be near during this time!

Urgent Prayer Needed!

mariah2.jpgmariah.jpgPenn View family would appreciate your prayers right now. An accident involving Mariah Shrout (Lucas and Hannah Shrout’s oldest) happened about an hour ago. She has been life-flighted to a local hospital. The extent of her injuries are not known at this point. However, much prayer is needed, not only for the Shrout family, but for the others involved. We are a family and we all want to be there at this time. God knows best and we trust in Him!

Spring Choir Tour

Choir tour, as usual, was held over Penn View’s spring break. Leaving campus on April 16 and returning home twelve days later, the tour was filled with traveling, singing and ministering. During the course of the tour, the choir spent three encouraging days at the IHC in Daton, Ohio. God’s presense and help was felt so real not only during services, but also in prayer times, devotionals, and talks along the way. Truly, God was with the choir this spring and it proved a profitable time for all!
