The ministry of SHC is funded entirely by the generous giving of God’s people. You will notice that we do not pass the offering plate; however, there are offering boxes in the back of the auditorium. We believe from the Word of God that the Spirit of God will lead people towards giving back to God of their first fruits. “...God loves a cheerful giver,” (2 Cor. 9:7). Please prayerfully consider what the Lord would have you do.

“Proficiency Test” Luke 9:10-17

Presented by

Pastor Justin Greene

November 1, 2015

Steve Weidner didn’t know what he was getting himself

into when he walked across the playground on his way

back from lunch. On June 2, the 46-year old custodian

at Alan Shepard Elementary School in Bourbonnais,

Illinois, was swarmed by 104 second graders hoping to

get their yearbooks signed.

“It was pretty overwhelming for me with them all

screaming for my attention and waving their yearbooks

in the air,” Weidner told TODAY.com. “But after we

organized a line and I sat down, it ended up being really

fun.”

Page 6: New Bulletin November, 1 2015

A photo of the second graders standing in line was

posted to the Bourbonnais School District Facebook

page and on June 5, it was uploaded to Reddit, where

it’s already garnered over 3 million views.

Alan Shepard custodian Steve “Mr. Steve” Weidner has reached Rock

Star status as he autographs yearbooks for his “fans”!

And the students who didn’t have a chance to get their

yearbooks signed outside weren’t left hanging – “Mr.

Steve,” as Weidner is known at the school – went into

classrooms to give out his autograph, and also had

students bring their yearbooks to lunch.

During his 15 years at Shepard, he’s signed students’

yearbooks, but has never had the turnout he had this

year. “He is a role model for the students and someone

they know they can go to whenever they need him –

whether a ball flies over a fence or they get sick,”

principal Shirley Padera told TODAY.com. “No problem

is too big for Mr. Steve.”

Page 7: New Bulletin November, 1 2015

Weidner has signed about 300 yearbooks this year and

said that he will continue the tradition for years to come.

“The students are what make every day a joy to go to

work,” Weidner said. “I do it for the kids.”

How do you know when you have done your job right?
