God our Father,

We pray for all who have died,

especially our loved ones and people in our community.

May they move closer to you every day and come to live

in your presence forever.

Amen.

A Message from the Principal

I would like to thank all of the parents for their tremendous efforts on the Pumpkin Sale last Friday.  Everyone did an awesome job in planning this event!   It was great to see all the parents together buying their pumpkins. Proceeds from this will go to the garden.

I am out of the office until Thursday, I will be back on Thursday, to celebrate with the children and see all of the wonderful activities taking place that day.  I am taking a little time off to celebrate my birthday with my family and friends.  If there are any questions or concerns, please see Mrs. Theiring. Thanks so muchJ

Friday is the Solemnity of All Saints, or All Saints Day, and we celebrate the lives of all the saints who now live in Christ. The third grade class has been researching the lives of saints and concluded the project with a special presentation for Mass. The students will be dressed as saints, and present facts about the lives of the saints to the congregation. We thank Mrs. Lomasto and the third grade class for their preparation and sharing at mass.

God bless,

Diana Girskis

Principal
