View this email in your browser Dear Friends, Thank you to all who joined us for our Family Mass this past Sunday. The Student Council, along with their moderators, Miss Zoe Balmy and Miss Jordan Pas, prepared a lovely service. Thank you also to our wonderful choir for gracing us with their beautiful voices. It was a great opportunity to commission and bless our Student Council members. Father Marvin also took this opportunity to welcome all our students and families back for the new school year. Thank you also for your generous support of the second collection of $441, which goes to support the school and its programs. Please consider joining us for our next Family Mass on October 14 when our 5th graders take the lead. Congratulations to the school choir!
