Dear St. Mel Parishioners,
Parish support of St. Mel School is something we do both to further Catholic education and to foster
faith-filled educational opportunities for children right here in our community.
With this in mind, I would like to ask you to join me in supporting this year’s St. Mel School Benefit
Auction, “Celebrate 55.” St. Mel School first opened its doors in 1959 and has been educating our
children in a faith-filled environment ever since, and this year’s Auction theme celebrates the 55th
year milestone. The money raised will be used to support the day-to-day functions of the school, as
well as a special project that supports the school’s technology lab.
The parents of St. Mel School have been hard at work organizing the event, so please mark your calendars for the evening of Saturday, November 15th. Tickets are $50 each and includes a catered sitdown dinner and dessert, music, dancing plus a chance to bid on both live and silent auction items
starting at just $10. Tickets may be purchased after all masses or during the week in the school office.
Together, we can support Catholic education right here in our parish.
Sincerely in Christ,
