NOW. There will be a meeting for all parents of
these children on Wednesday, September 23rd at 7:00

Program (special Mass and presentation), future
meetings, and the celebration dates, etc. It is
important you mark your calendars NOW.

to get needed supplies for your children. Your
cooperation is appreciated.

for both children and staff. Special thanks to Paul
Friel and Jackie Townsley for sharing their time and
talents in directing the program so well. And, special
thanks to our wonderful teachers and aides who
volunteer their time and share their talents in helping
our young folks come to know the Lord better. Your
faithful devoted efforts are deeply appreciated and
God will reward you generously for the blessing that
you are. Be proud of the good work you do. Anyone
