News

The time of Advent once again brings not only anticipation as we look toward the celebration of Christmas, but also devotions written by Mayer Lutheran High School students. The cover of this year’s booklet displays a verse from Psalm 40: “You who bring good news to Zion, go up on a high mountain. You who bring good news to Jerusalem, lift up your voice with a shout, lift it up, do not be afraid; say to the towns of Judah, ‘Here is your God!'”

A PDF copy of the devotional booklet is available by clicking here. Video recordings of each devotion, read by the authors, will be posted daily on the school’s Facebook page.

This year’s Advent Devotions are once again made possible through a generous contribution by Blake Hahn Financial Group.

Congratulations to the Crusader girls volleyball team for their second place finish in Class A at the MN State Volleyball Tournament! The Crusaders lost a hard-fought match in five sets to the Minneota Vikings, the team they defeated last year to capture the state title. After falling in the first two sets, the Crusaders fought back to win sets three and four and force a set five.

What a great season for Coach Grimsley, Coach Gesch, and the team! To God all Praise and Glory!

Come to an Open House this Fall!

An Open House is a great time to learn more about what Mayer Lutheran High School has to offer! Come tour the campus, learn about financial aid and transportation solutions, and hear what current parents and students have to say about MLHS.

Come visit us on November 8 from 6:30 to 8 PM! If you have questions or want more information, call Director of Enrollment Eric Turner at 952-657-2251 x 1011 or email him at eric.turner@mayerlutheran.org.

Come for dinner and stay for the show! The MLHS drama department is offering a dinner/show combination for this year’s fall play, “How to Host a Murder Mystery Dinner Party (in Fifteen Simple Steps).”

Join your host, Miss Penelope Chrysler-Michelin, as she presents her proven, fifteen-step process on how to host a murder mystery dinner party. To guide you through the presentation, Miss Penelope has planned her own murder mystery dinner party to play out onstage. She’ll take you through all the most important steps, such as “Setting the Scene,” “Choosing Your Mark,” “Establishing Motive,” and more.

Of course, her guest list has been carefully selected to make sure the very best mix of suspicious characters are present — The Celebrity, The Writer, The Doctor, The Ladykiller. But like any good murder mystery, the weather worsens, and the plot thickens when there is an unexpected visitor on the dark and stormy night. Good thing Miss Penelope has thought of everything, including Step Eight: “Always Have a Backup Plan.”

With a different ending for each performance, this light-hearted look at a murder mystery will have you guessing “whodunit” and laughing at the antics of Miss Penelope’s guests. You won’t want to miss it!

The dinner is a fund-raiser for the MLHS drama club, and allows students to participate in and fund drama-related activities throughout the school year. A limited number of dinner tickets will be available, so purchase your tickets early! Show-only tickets (which include dessert) are also available. Dinner and show tickets are $30 and will be available to purchase online from early October through November 4th. Show-only tickets are $15, and will be available both online and at the door.
