I am truly humbled by the amazing donations that poured in last Sunday. May God bless all of you for your care for the less fortunate through-out the world. Please do consider volunteering to help pack the meals in April. This week is Catholic Schools Week. There are a number of fun events for the children in our school throughout the week. There is a special open house for prospective families that will take place on Monday morning. The school in-vites all families to enjoy donuts and coffee after Mass today in the adminis-trative building (located directly across from the church). Thanks to all who donated to the second collection last Sunday to support our parish school.
