"Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." Philippians 3:13-14

There are theme verses for school years and there are theme verses for school years. What a tremendously apropos verse for the past seven months at LHS. I am extremely proud of The Lutheran High School of Kansas City, faculty, staff and student body. This year has proven to be challenging, frustrating, annoying, but more than any of those terms. . .fulfilling. I have asked for extra work, extra patience, extra understanding, and extraordinary effort on the part of all groups and all have responded positively. A huge thank you to our parent group as well. Thanks for understanding our efforts to conduct a school year under unique circumstances. We press on.
But everyone has confronted similar obstacles in differing environments
But the journey continues, the end is not in sight, and if it is, I just have not been able to visualize the day where we return to “life as usual”. And maybe, conceptually speaking, that reality no longer exists. We have miles to go before we sleep here at LHS. Spring sports, lip sync, prom, a drama production, graduation, and The Affair of the Heart 2021 (Saturday, May 22nd) are all scheduled and yet to be completed. We press on.
While planning has begun, we need some assistance in LHS’ major fundraiser, The Affair of the Heart Auction 2021. We need help in a variety of categories. First, we need auction items to be donated for our sale. These can be gift cards, tickets, weekends at a condo, rounds of golf, sponsored dinners, wine tasting events, barbecues, donated professional services, gift baskets, sports memorabilia, or anything you can think of that would be fun to bid on or purchase.
The preliminary plan for the auction is to complete a two-week silent auction online as we did for last year’s event. Then on Saturday night, May 22nd, we would meet in the gym for our food and drink and live auction. Of course, we will be practicing safety first as we have all year. I believe we can still run an efficient, effective, and safe auction.
Please contact us if you are interested in helping with this year's auction. We need your ideas, your energy, and cooperation in order to make this year’s auction a success. Please join us as we present A Knight in the 50’s, The Affair of the Heart Auction 2021.
God Bless
