My tenant has been renting from me for 5 years and she has NEVER given me a problem. Rent always on time, she keeps the house spotless, and anytime something breaks she gets it fixed and just lets me know it’s taken care of. She’s really been a blessing as a tenant. Today she called me crying, saying she’s been sick and had to go on FMLA. She doesn’t qualify for disability, so right now she has no way to pay her rent. I told her not to stress and gave her 90 days rent-free. I’d rather lose the money for a few months than lose a good, respectful tenant who has always handled her business. Sometimes it’s not about profit it’s about compassion.
What a joy to see the staff at Mark Twain Elementary get into the HLGU Day of Giving spirit. Many folks at Mark Twain are HLGU alums and we’re so thankful for their support!

"When children such as Gunnar have been chosen to go into this kind of battle at an early age, they are not being punished or cursed by God, but are here to inspire and enlighten us to face life's frailties, its contingencies, and how precious it is. They are here to teach us."

You can still send in your year-end gift through the mail! While HLGU offices may be closed through New Year's Day, your gift still counts toward tax-deduction purposes if it comes in postmarked prior to January 1st, so get it in while you still can!
"And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn." -- Luke 2:7
Merry Christmas from HLGU.
(6/6) His mischief accomplished, he curled up by the fire,
With a cup of hot cocoa and cozy Christmas attire.
And I heard him exclaim through the falling snowflakes,
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good break!
(3/6) He was such a fun sight, dressed in festive garb,
Hoping his sweater would hide all those Christmas carbs.
He looked around more to see what else was at hand,
And then with a wink, tied himself up with garland.

(4/6) He had a gleam in his eye, like a spirited elf
Though he missed the students, he had campus all to himself.
And then in a twinkling, the mischief was back
As he headed to the CMC, a great sack on his back.
(5/6) He went to the stockings, so lively and quick
And put something in like a playful St. Nick
Coal for Allen, coal for Mullin, coal for Turner—a lot!
Now dash away, dash away, before you get caught!
(2/6) I watched from the doorway to see what he’d do next.
Then I pulled out my phone to send off a text.
That’s when he saw me. He was up to no trick.
Turns out he just wanted a festive profile pic.
When in the halls of the admin, there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my office to see what was the matter.
And what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a mischievous Trojan with a wreath on his spear.
