"Sitting under a zinc roof, listening to the rain beating down... it’s God’s music." There is a particular rhythm to life at Hermitage House when the clouds settle over our valley. As I sit here writing this, the steady drumming above reminds me of how fortunate we are. We are deeply thankful for the rain that sustains our grounds and our community, and we remain truly blessed to have a roof over our heads—a simple, sturdy shelter that allows us to appreciate the storm from a place of safety, something not all communities are fortunate to have.

It has been a thoroughly enjoyable start to the year. Watching the school gates open and seeing the energy return to our hallways is always a highlight, but I have especially enjoyed spending more time with our preschool phase recently. All credit must go to Aniska and her team for creating such a fun, vibrant, and enjoyable learning space for our future superstars.
