Lenten Almsgiving
As part of Lenten sacrifices almsgiving to those in need is one of the easiest. Instead of buying Starbucks for a day think about donating that money to a worthy cause. We have partnered again with St. Patrick's Nursing Home and a jar has been set in the lunchroom for students to drop in their alms (donations) for us to assist those with a fulfilling Easter meal. If parents want to join in the spirit see Mrs. Resto in the office as she has taken charge of the student's jar. The students of the 7th and 8th grade, who are in the Confirmation Program, will be visiting St. Patrick's Home on Thursday March 26th as part of their Confirmation Service Project.
