Closet Clean-Out
T
he Fifth Graders are sponsoring their annual
Closet Clean-Out
project to help the St. Vincent de Paul store clothe the needy in our community. Due to the recent storms and their evacuees, the need is greater than ever for good, clean and usable clothing items.
During the week of Sept. 24th, students may bring in items to school in
small
PLASTIC
(not paper) bags or small boxes
(the fifth grade students must be able to carry the packages.)
If you have too many (or larger) items for students to carry to school, you can drop them off at the
front gates ONLY on the mornings of the scheduled pick-up dates:
Wednesday, Sept. 26th and Tuesday, October 2nd.
The last truck pickup will be Tuesday morning, so NO ITEMS WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER 8:00 am on the MORNING OF TUESDAY, OCTOBER 2nd.
All of us have something to share with God’s family in need. Thank you for your generosity!

RCIA and RCIC
The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA)
and the
Rite of Christian Initiation adapted for Children (RCIC)
are programs for adults and their children who are interested in becoming members of the Catholic Church. The RCIC program is also for children of Catholic families, who are age 7 or older and have not yet received the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Eucharist and Reconciliation).
The process is one of
sharing, believing, praying and learning
with other members of our parish community.
The 2018-19 RCIA and RCIC sessions will begin in September and end in the Easter season. If you are thinking about joining the Catholic Church or would like more information about the Catholic faith,
please call Deacon Don Musso in the parish office at 225-752-6230.
You are invited to attend an informal meeting on Tuesday, September 25th at 7:00 pm in the St. John Room of the parish office.
We welcome and encourage all our non-Catholic School families, but please know that there is no obligation, commitment, or pressure to join.
