Every year, our school donates pajamas, socks, hats, gloves, underwear, fleece blankets and gently used coats to Social Ministries. Social Ministries then gives these items to families in need. Many of these families will use these items as Christmas presents.
While you are out shopping over the Thanksgiving break please consider buying some of these items to donate. They are in need of boys and girls items of all sizes.
The Advent trees will be in the front foyer. So, when you bring your items to school, you can hang them on the Christmas trees or place them in the box next to the tree.
This Thanksgiving, let us be thankful fo
r all the blessings in our lives and help us to be a blessing to others.
And a big THANK YOU to our Girl Sc
out
Troops for donating the trees!
Troop #3002 (6th Grade)

A Note from Thomas Stumpf, Director of Food Pantry Outreach
"Thank you for your participation in this year's Holiday Outreach Program. As of right now, you have contributed 82 Big boxes and 87 Small boxes to our program! Because of your generosity, we will be able to provide food to 82 families at Thanksgiving and Christmas! I am constantly humbled by the generosity and dedication of the Parish and the School to ministering to those who do not have enough in our community. This program would not be what it is without you. From the bottom of my heart and on behalf of everyone who has received and will receive help from Food Pantry Outreach, THANK YOU! May God continue to bless you and your families."
 Thank you ALL who helped with the Holiday Outreach Boxes. And thank you to Dalia Smith, Barbara Clark, Olivia Miranda, Jeanne Murphy, Jennifer Doucet, and Jill Collard for all the help with consolidating incomplete boxes.

We helped set a NEW World Record!!!
|
| Coach Jarvis just received an email confirming that we helped break the previous World Record of 592,292 stackers. The record has not been officially recorded as of yet, as Guinness and Speed Stacks are still verifying numbers from all over the World. Currently, the number stands at 594,967 verified stackers and counting!! Saint Andrew contributed 615 stackers to this total.
Click here to see all the organizations worldwide that helped contribute to the New Guinness World Record. Once there is an Official Number, Coach Jarvis will send out a link for you to print out a participation certificate for your child's scrapbook.
Thank you for all your support and excitement about Physical Education!!

"Life is a journey, along different roads, different paths, which leave their mark on us. We know in faith that Jesus seeks us out. He wants to heal our wounds, to soothe our feet which hurt from traveling alone, to wash each of us clean of the dust from our journey."
