Weekly Highlights: Mar. 4 - 10

 
 
 

Spring may officially start in 16 days, but we are not being allowed to forget that it's still winter until then!  The snow looks so beautiful on our local mountains, but I would like it to stay there!

THANK YOU

  • to those who attended the 9:30 School-Led Mass this morning, especially the choir, lectors and students preparing for First Holy Communion.  If you were there,  you know how packed the church was - wow!  I had a new family tour at 11:00 and accompanied them to the church so they could attend the 11:30 Mass - it was equally full.  It is so wonderful to see how many of our families attend Mass regularly.

INFORMATION

  • The Kids Who Can will host a concession during the school musical. Snacks and drinks will range from $1-$5. Students may bring money to purchase snacks after the morning musical performance. 

  • On Thursday, March 7th there will be another basketball preview practice. This time it will be open to both boys and girls in grades 3, 4 & 5.
