October 1-5
_______________________________
Only one more week until camp!  Thank you so much to everyone for turning in your camp forms on time.  I really appreciate it!

Thursday, October 4 is the Feast of St. Francis.  Our class is working with the kindergarten to plan this Mass.  All are invited to attend, and of course bring their animals to be blessed.  Parents can bring pets at 1:00.  There will be a designated section for parents and pets to sit.  Immediately following Mass, students will be able to bring their pets up to Fr. Piro for a blessing.  Please help us celebrate this important tradition in our faith.
