Waikerie Lutheran Primary School is a supportive Christ-centred community, equipping each student for life.
Message from the Principal What is life about?
Jordan and Erin work hard and play hard. They stay fit; love
a good meal; and like many couples their age, they go
on-line a lot and stay connected through social media. But
both admit they need to be careful because it’s easy to get
sucked into a “selfie” mind-set.
Jordan explains, “There’s just a lot of self, a lot of people just
trying to get and gather and absorb as much as they can for
their self-interests. And to look good, as far as outfits or where they live, what
car they drive. Everyone is hyper competitive and everyone’s trying to get
ahead.”
The couple try hard to stay focused on other things. Erin says, “We prioritised
when we first got married God is number one and then family number two
and then our jobs and career number three.”
And while they’re very successful real estate brokers, their goal isn’t to build a
big bank account so they can buy things for themselves. Instead, they choose
to invest in promoting God and giving to others.
“I believe that’s what the Lord’s put me here for,” Jordan shares.
We pray: Dear Lord, thank you for giving us the opportunity at this school to learn more than just about this life, but also learn about the next. Thank you
for the way you have blessed us and help us to share what you have blessed
