First Reconciliation/First Eucharist
Second grade parents and students have begun a special time of preparation for the Secraments of First Reconciliation and First Eucharist. This is a wonderful opportunity for families to grow together in faith, to deepen their own faith and to strengthen relationships with one another. The parish community supports you with prayer that this time will be one of great joy and many blessings.
ACRE Assessment Results
In October, students in grades 5 & 8 took the ACRE Assessment of Religious Education as part of our religious program evaluation. This assessment measures how well our students are doing and guides us in making changes in our program so we can continue to provide a good education. You may be interested in seeing how our students (your child) compares in relation to students nationally in parish programs. Learning key concepts of the faith, however, is only the first aspect. Throughout our lives we continue to grow in faith, put what we know into practice and pass it on to the next generation.
Haiti Project
Our Project for Haiti Orphanage will begin on September 12, with a pancake breakfast for the parish. All donations will go toward this project. Our goal this year is $2,000. To date we have raised over $8,500. Just as praying is one thing the Church asks us to do , sacrifice is another thing we are asked to do. Sacrifice means going without something you like or doing something that's hard so others are helped. When we sacrifice, we follow Jesus.
