Are you in? The GCP/Raise Right Challenge is on! The winning classroom wins a hot cocoa party. But the real winner is the school because of the extra funds that these gift cards generate. And at no cost to you. All the details are in MM.
Support OLW and give yourself a break during this busy holiday season. Grab dinner tomorrow at Culver's in Mount Prospect - they will donate 10% back to us, just mention OLW as you order. Tell your friends and family. We appreciate your support.

Two of our fifth graders chose St. Nicholas as their saint last month. There's always at least one, and why not? He's the patron saint of children and known for bringing gifts. #fosteringfaith #saintsinthemaking @ChiCathSchools @archchicago

We are very grateful for the support of this parish - the priests and deacons, the staff, and all members. Our school and parish have the same mission: to promote the Catholic faith and encourage us all to live and share the message of Jesus. #thanksgiving #grateful
We are beyond grateful for our teachers and staff. They choose to teach at a Catholic because they want to be part of the faith formation of our young people. #thanksgiving #grateful
All invited to the OLW Thanksgiving Mass. Alumni - will we see you?
We are grateful for all the ways our school families help the school - with their time, talents, and treasure. We are happy to partner with them to educate students in faith.
One week until #GivingTuesday - a global day of giving. Each year, we ask alumni, current and past school parents, parishioners, friends and family to support our school. All funds raised directly benefit our students and teachers! Watch for the link on Nov 29.
