School's out for summer. Have fun, be safe, stay smart. Summer office hours are Mon-Thur 9am-1pm. Find the school supply list and next year's calendar on the website.
Some of our graduates joined us for mass this morning.
It's almost the end, only about 1/2 day left for school and everyone is taking it easy: cleaning, movies, playing with favorite classroom materials.
“Holy Spirit, breathe into our hearts and let us inhale the tenderness of the Father. Breathe upon the Church, so that she may spread the Gospel with joy. Breathe upon the world the fresh restoration of hope.” #PopeFrancis #Pentecost
Come Holy Spirit,
fill the hearts of thy faithful and kindle in them the fire of thy love.
Send forth thy Spirit and they shall be created.
And thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
