Week of 11/26-11/30

Welcome Back!! I hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving holiday.  
This is a big week for our second graders.  They will be receiving the Sacrament of First Penance. The children are excited, nervous, and ready to receive this amazing Sacrament.

***Tuesday, November 27th at 6pm, St. Patrick's church.  Please be there by 5:45pm so the service can start promptly.  This is not a mass...the Penance service will last about 45 minutes at the most.  Your child should wear church clothes.  Family and friends are invited to share in this blessed event.
