Dear Supporters of SLA, I am happy to report that we are launching a $50,000 fundraising campaign for a new gym floor. God has truly blessed, and we have already been able to secure $18,600 for the project while barely lifting a finger. Why install a new gym floor? First, this is a small part of a broader aim to set SLA apart as the premiere music, outdoor education/recreation, and acrobatics school in the Maritimes. Second, it is a pure matter of safety given the number of injuries that have been sustained on our current sealed concrete floor. It is our hope that the completion of projects such as these will create a stronger sense of healthy pride in our school, improve the day-to-day student learning experience, and be a token of good stewardship for the resources that God has entrusted us with. We are currently deep into a total revamp of our website where giving will be streamlined. In the meantime, donate by going to:
https://sandy-lake-academy.myhelcim.com/hosted/?token=d4b8a2e2f5e2505a45b07f
OR contact Jill in the office at secretary@sandylakeacademy.ca to make a donation. A tax deductible receipt will be issued for all donations above $20. Thank you for your support.
Sincerely, Steve Kibbee, SLA Principal principal@sandylakeacademy.ca

Coming to a Zoom Near You
This Fall, new small group Experiences Devotional Groups will start up. There will be a Youth/Young Adult one, an Introductory level one, and an Advanced one for those interested in going deeper in their walk with each other and our God!
Testimony Quote: There is something solemn and special about being cared for. As a Seventh-day Adventist Christian, I seek, as you probably do, to care for others. We say that it is more blessed to give than to receive, but being a recipient of attention and care has – as I’ve discovered – more than a few benefits. When Pastor Franz Unger invited me to join his new small group, I was surprised and delighted, but I didn’t know that I was about to experience having a new Pastor… and a new family. The group enabled me to give and to receive… loads of attention. Thank you, Pastor Unger, and the group, for the transformative conversations we had on life, the Bible, and each other. Thank you, Father, for making me experience Church.
