Faith in all we do at Logos Christian Academy

Faith in all we do at Logos Christian Academy

During a calendar discussion this week, a student asked, “What’s Cinco de Mayo?” A simple answer might be that it means May 5, but that wouldn’t fully address the question. The teacher explained that Cinco de Mayo celebrates Mexico’s 1862 victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla. This was significant because the Mexican army was much smaller and weaker than the French army, yet they still won. This prompted the class to recall a story in the Bible where the smaller and weaker overcame the larger and stronger, leading to eager responses of “David and Goliath! David and Goliath!” 05/07/2025 04:38 PM

Battle Born Broncs PRCA Rodeo Clinic: Giving Youth a Leg Up in the Arena and Beyond

While it may have seemed like a lot of bulls, broncs, and barrel racers in one weekend, the move was strategic. As Spero shared, one of her greatest passions is the Battle Born Broncs PRCA Camp—a rodeo training clinic designed to help the next generation of rodeo stars. Friday’s rodeo school gave area youth a rare opportunity to learn from some of the best bronc riders, bull riders, and ropers in the business and opened the arena to high school and junior high rodeo competitors from across the state. 05/07/2025 03:52 PM

Senior Deputy District Attorney (SDDA) Chelsea Sanford requested 18–61 months in prison to run consecutive to Coleman’s Washoe County sentence. She said the defendant crashed a truck in Churchill County, fled into the desert, and entered a home where no one was present. The homeowner later found Coleman wearing his clothes and using his cellphone. The victim pursued Coleman, who dropped the phone and escaped. Sanford acknowledged Coleman was in a desperate situation but said his actions could not be excused. 05/07/2025 03:14 PM
