“God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another.” —1 Peter 4:10 (NLT)

If there was one thing that sets Cascade Christian Schools apart from any other school, it would be IMPACT Term. I-Term for short, this is a week where students are able to use their God-given gifts and talents. We get to go out in our community to I-Terms such as the Tacoma Rescue Mission (which I did my freshman and sophomore years), Ocean Shores (which I did my junior year), and Honduras—which I have the amazing opportunity of being a part of my senior year.

I-Term is truly a wonderful experience because we are not only able to be in fellowship with one another but also able to do God’s work on earth, ministering to others and serving as his ambassadors. We are able to represent both God’s kingdom and Cascade Christian Schools.

Each and every one of us at Cascade Christian has a gift, and during this week we get to use our gifts to glorify God and serve our communities from near, middle, and far! I am looking forward to what God has in store for all of our I-Terms this year.

As we get our hearts ready for a week of service, let us aim to serve with humility, gentleness, and patience as God calls us to in Ephesians 4:2, and let us make the most of this amazing opportunity.
