Almighty God,
We pray that leaders everywhere,
in our world, in our church,
and in our communities, will follow your example.
May they serve you and use their power
to create a just and peaceful world.
Amen.
A Message from the Principal
I am happy to announce that after much anticipation, the gym logo has been completed! The logo will be unveiled at the Stewardship Fair and International Food Festival at the Community Center on Sunday, November 14 between 8:30 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. We invite all school families to come see the logo and enjoy the fair and festival. We are grateful to our 2008 auction item bidders for making this logo possible!
As Thanksgiving approaches, we remember to give thanks for our abundant blessings. We also remember those in need and our call to help others. Our 7th grade class will be sponsoring the annual collection of food for our sister school/parish, St. Columbkille. A flyer is enclosed in this week’s envelope with suggested donations for each class, though any non-perishable donation is welcome. This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to practice one of Incarnation’s Schoolwide Student Learning Expectations: serving the community according to God’s call as evidenced by local and global outreach. Thank you for your support of this drive.
Have a great week!
Ms. Olivia Carrillo

SCRIP Tips
In today's home messenger; please see all the limited time additional profits that can be earned. Many of the companies do this just prior to the holidays. It's a perfect time to start thinking about your holiday needs and take advantage of the additional profits. Remember to shop early. Each year we do our best to have everything in stock, but we've yet to totally anticipate everyone's needs.
