Loving God,
Help us to learn from Mary how to serve you well.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.


A Message from the Principal

We all have a lot to be thankful for, and I would like to personally thank everyone who has donated money to help the Typhoon victims.  We know that it is hard to imagine how they are feeling during this time, but with your donations we know that we are helping them as much as we possibly can.  The next date for our collection will be December 18th.

This Thursday, December 12th,  we celebrate the solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary with an all school Mass at 11 a.m. Mr. Huizar’s fourth grade class, will be leading the Mass. We invite you to join us in this celebration. 

A survey from the PTO is included in this home messenger, we would like for you to respond and turn it in to the office, as soon as you can. We would like your feedback to better serve the student/parent body.

Parents please join us after the Christmas concert in the school courtyard for a special unveiling, which is bound to share a wonderful message for the Incarnation family!
God Bless, 

Diana Girskis
Principal
