Joe Meredith, husband of Sherry Meredith, our Jr High and High School secretary, began coaching basketball at PCS in 2006 when his daughter Ruby was in 3rd grade. He fi rst coached the 3rd and 4th grade girls, then 5th and 6th grade girls, then served as the assistant coach for varsity girls, before becoming coach of boys’ varsity for six years. In all, he served as a volunteer coach at PCS for ten years. Joe will be remembered for demanding excellence from his players on the fl oor, but even more so for mentoring them to become young men and women of character. During a long fi ght with cancer he modeled his own rallying cry of “Get up!” by refusing to submit to despair and continued to encourage others even as his own health was failing. We miss Coach Joe and look forward to seeing him again when our Lord Jesus returns.

Remarks given by Steve McCormick at the memorial service held May 21, 2016. I am a parent of one of Coach Joe Meredith’s players. What I appreciated about Coach was his love for our boys. He taught them, guided them, and was willing to fi ght for our children. There are countless young men here who are who they are as a result of Coach Joe. Joe taught our boys the game of basketball. He taught the plays, shooting, defense – the X’s and O’s. He taught them to love the game of basketball and each of them grew in their ability because of Joe’s teaching. But even more importantly, he taught them to play the game of life. He taught them to be men of character, men of integrity on and off the court. Many examples come to mind. One example was from a couple years ago. We were at a game out of town over a weekend. The previous night, one of the players from the opposing team had been injured. As our starting lineups were being introduced, each of the starting fi ve went to the opposing team’s bench and shook hands with this player. Joe taught his players to care for people, even the opponent. As parents we try to teach our kids those things, but Joe showed his players how to live those truths. We are thankful to Joe for that.

Taken from an email originally written by Tim Caldwell, updated and edited by Dan Wilson One of the drawbacks about being a principal is that you spend a signifi cant amount of time hearing or addressing problems, confl icts or issues that arise – i.e. Sally’s not doing her homework, Johnny’s Instagram page has inappropriate language on it, or Mrs. Lovestoteach gives too much homework. With that said, I am happy to report that I get to hear a lot of great news also. I’d like to share just a few of these that have occurred in recent weeks:

Counting our Blessings • 1 Governor’s Scholar! This past summer one of our seniors, Ruth Ann Dye, participated in the Governor’s Scholars program. • 1 Full-Ride Scholarship to Stanford! One of our 2016 graduates, Victor Cheruiyot, is currently a student at Stanford University, having received a full-ride scholarship there! Victor hopes to eventually earn a degree in medicine and return to his native Kenya to serve the poor. • 2 new playground sets have been installed for the benefi t of our students, a large one out on our front lawn and a smaller one in our PCS Little School playground. These were made possible by the generosity of many of our school families and some corporate donations, and were installed mainly by about a dozen of our own parents (working on two of the hottest days in 2016!). • 2 of our 2016 graduates are attending Asbury University on athletic scholarships - Caroline Wood for volleyball and Blaise McCormick for basketball. • 3 of our PCS Alumni have received awards and honors in the past few months: Jazmin Trejo Oliver (’12) was named a Fulbright Scholar this past spring and is currently studying in Spain as part of that program; Ben Wilson (’01) was chosen to receive the Ellershaw Award for an Outstanding PhD Candidate in the University of Kentucky English department; and J.T. Henderson (’94) was chosen as a Louisville Business First’s “Forty Under 40” honoree. • At least 3! PCS has added several clubs and sports teams this year. These include the fi rst STEM Scouts program in the state of Kentucky, an International Club and a Philosophy Club. The participation in each has been more than was expected. • 4 – the number of in-house Advanced Placement (AP) classes PCS has added this school year. High school students may also choose from several dozen options for AP and Dual Credit classes online for the 2016-17 school year. • 5 (or more!) – PCS is hosting three students from Guatemala and two or more from China during the 2016-17 school year, continuing a long tradition of welcoming international students to PCS. • 11 PCS high school students served on a school-sponsored mission trip in Nicaragua this summer. • A Lot! Of PCS have produced high quality and award-winning art work at the junior and senior high levels. • 200,000! The amount of the largest donation so far to our classroom addition building project! Back in April, PCS received a $100,000 gift designated for the new classroom addition and another gift of $200,000 in July!

God continues to do great things in the lives of PCS students and families. This is just great news that has happened in the past few months. If there are other exciting happenings in the life of your student and family (baptisms, mission opportunities, promotions, etc), we would love to celebrate those with you. Please let us know by sharing on one of the school’s social media sites, or through a phone call or email. Our Facebook page is facebook.com/portlandchristian . Our Twitter accounts are @PCHSnetwork (high school) and @PCS7th8th. Let’s boast in the Lord as a school community for His continual faithfulness and blessing in our lives! 5 A NIGHT OF CELEBRATION

“The reality is that [Portland] is a school that gives back. When we came and toured the school, the thing that I think struck us…was that there was a sense of just joy and family and caring and an attentiveness on the part of the teachers, and a pouring into the children individually in a way that really is not typical.” GOVERNOR MATT BEVIN Keynote Speaker

“When I became acquainted with Portland, one of the things I loved was not just that I saw the Truth being taught, but I saw the Truth being taught with the spirit of Jesus, a spirit of humility, a spirit of compassion, and to me that’s what makes Portland so distinct. You see this throughout the halls, you see this in the teachers, how they deal with students one at a time in the Jesus way, where they love students one at a time, they care about what is happening in that student’s life. It’s not just imparting knowledge or downloading information, it is shepherding hearts.” KYLE IDLEMAN Guest Speaker 330+ IN ATTENDANCE “I came to Portland Christian as a guest, $124,000+ but I left as a friend.” RAISED FOR PCS JENNA DAY Miss Kentucky 2013

But they never expected the ways they changed the lives of those they encountered. The team distributed 482 Bibles to households that either had no Bible or had only one that was in very poor condition. They met believers full of joy who welcomed them into their homes. Some kissed the neww Bible they received. They met a man who had been a believer for a very long time but who had never ownedd a Bible. He was thrilled to fi nally be able to read it forr himself and to be able to share what he learned with others.
