Welcome to the latest edition of KMaiL, a weekly e-mail update from Kettle Moraine Lutheran High School.
- - KML HIGH SCHOOL NEWS AND INFORMATION - -
= WALKING THE PATH UPDATE – WHAT ARE GIFTS-IN-KIND? =
The Lord blesses each of us with unique gifts and abilities. In a project like this, some of our Federation members have special skills that can be used in the construction or finishing of the facility. Those who possess those special skills might be willing to donate their time to help finish part of the building. When those services are donated by our Federation members, we eliminate the need to hire contractors and that saves us money. There are other Federation members who have the ability to donate materials that will be used in the building. Again, the donation of those materials eliminates our need to purchase them at full price and saves us money.
So, if you have a gift-in-kind of services or materials please contact Matt Burow with Catalyst Construction at ma...@catalystbuilds.com or 414-727-6840. They are seeking gifts-in-kind on this project now, and can explain the details to potential donors. The more gifts-in-kind that are donated, the less that will need to be borrowed!

= LIVING NATIVITY THANK YOU =
The Living Nativity at Enchantment in the Park this past December was an outreach success. Over 2,000 people heard about a Savior born for them!
One little girl commented that she had never heard the story of Jesus’ birth before. May the same saving message that she heard for the FIRST time during the Living Nativity continue to work in the hearts of all who heard it, whether it was for the first time or the thousandth.
THANK YOU to the 100+ volunteers from six different WELS congregations who provided their time, talents, and efforts, to help make this outreach event a reality. The Lord truly blessed this event with talented and caring volunteers who helped make this a special event for the 2000+ people who attended.
= ZUMBA =
New Year, New You with Zumba! Looking for a fun way to revitalize your workout routine? Take Salsa, Cha-Cha, Samba, Tango, Merengue, add hints of Hip-Hop and Belly Dancing, put them together and you have Zumba! Don’t know how to dance, don’t worry! Each Zumba class is like a party with easy to follow moves done to the hottest Latin Rhythms. So come join the party Sunday evenings at KML from 6-7pm with licensed Zumba Instructor Amanda Gronholz.
