Parent Prayer Group
Join our parent prayer group of passionate parents who meet together each week on Fridays to seek God’s heart for CAL-Southwest as we pray into the life of this school.
In the past several years since our group formed, we have seen many prayers answered and God move in powerful ways in the lives of students, teachers and families.
Whatever the need, we bring it to our Heavenly Father. We also praise the Lord for the many ways He is actively at work and already doing far above what we could ever expect. So please join us on Friday mornings in the Media Center from 8:20 – 9:20 a.m. Our desire is to see God glorified! If you are interested, please email Tanya Killion at nana411@aol.com.

Our collection service and students are scheduled to be featured tonight on WLKY-32 during a portion of their evening broadcast between 5-6:30 p.m. (be aware that any story is subject to being pre-empted). Any coverage should also be shared on their website in the next few days.
In addition, WHAS-11 broadcast Great Day Live! was here this morning for our collection service. We are hopeful that their coverage will be placed on their website in the next few days as well.
