As we cope with the passing of a beloved coach and member of the Urchin family, the high school building at East Union will be open at 4:30 today with counselors and pastors on hand for any student, staff, or any community member who needs to talk.

- Update on Carter: CT scan showed no concussion but he does have a ruptured ear drum. He is waiting to see ENT and should be released. He’s one tough kid; an Urchin through and through! #GoldStandard

- Scary moment at Trustmark Park after starting pitcher Carter Phillips takes a ball to the side of the head with two out in the first inning. Please be in prayer for this great young man as he’s being tended to.

- Our hearts are heavy with the news of Ms. Angie Young’s passing. She whole-heartedly loved and served the children of East Union for many years and will be profoundly missed. Please be in prayer for her family during this difficult time.
- The Urchin family is sad to hear of the passing of Mr. Sid Priest. Mr. Priest was a long time principal at EU. He was the definition of a “school man”; always professional, fair, and caring. His legacy lives in all the lives he touched.
