We are in our 2nd week of Lent, a retreat for everyone in our Church: a time of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. Our 5th graders are working with Pauly’s Project and for our school wide Lenten Service Project, we continue to collect donations for this charity. Please donate notebooks and pens to help those in need. It’s a great way to practice Corporal Works of Mercy for our neighbors. The donation drive ends on March 29th.

Every Friday in Lent we have our 1:30pm all school Stations of the Cross in the church. The Lenten Fish Fry and evening Stations of the Cross are every Friday evening in the church.
