Dear Parents,
Students are learning that Lent is a time for preparation for the Resurrection of Jesus. Throughout the Lenten season, students discover how forgiveness, charity, and faith can help them participate in the sacrifice of Jesus. Please work along with us as we help your children explore how they can prepare their hearts for Easter. Discuss with them some of the changes they are hoping to make in their lives during the season of Lent. Share with them some of the changes you hope to make. Together we can help the children understand the significance of this important time in our church calendar. Check out this site for activities you can do with your children.
Thank you to all who joined us for our Family Mass this past Sunday. The 3rd and 5th graders, along with their teachers, Miss Beach and Miss Kane, prepared a meaningful service. Thank you also to our wonderful choir and their director, Shelley White, for gracing us with their beautiful voices.
Stations of the Cross: Thank you to all who joined us for 4th grades presentation of the first five stations. As we continue Jesus' journey to the cross, the next five stations will be presented this Friday, March 13 at 1:45pm in the church. Please join us if you can. | | | Thursday, March 12th
