Family Messenger, September 18, 2012

Holy God,

You sent your son, Jesus into the world

to be the light of the world.

May this Christ light burn brightly

in all we do and say, so that your love

may be known on earth as it is in heaven.

Amen.

A Message from the Principal

Thanks to everyone who helped us celebrate the 75^th Anniversary of Incarnation School! We had a wonderful time at Mass on Saturday with Bishop Wilkerson. Thanks to the families and students who came to show support for the school. It was a beautiful Mass with the choirs and the children serving and reading. The dinner was so lovely, and we all had a nice time.  The artwork the children did was beautifully displayed in the gym. The children did a great job with their descriptions of the school.

The Picnic on Sunday was excellent!  Thanks to everyone who helped out, especially   Mrs. Alonso, Mrs. Dumansky and their crew-they really know how to make the school look fabulous! I had a great time in the dunking booth. Thanks to all who came!

Thank you parents, students and teachers for all you do for our school. If you have any questions or concerns about anything, please come and see me. My door is always open.

Sincerely,

Diana Girskis
