Congratulations, Track Athletes!

The St. Alphonsus Track Team had their first invitational meet this past weekend! The meet was the Corpus Christi Indoor Invitational, held at Waukesha South. Congrats to all of our athletes who competed!

Thank you for a wonderful Mom Prom!

The evening was exciting...to say the least. Thank you to all the Moms and Sons who joined us, even when we had to shelter in place due to tornado warnings here. Please enjoy some photos of the event!

Thank you also to all of the amazing volunteers (also moms) who helped put on this event. Whether you helped us setup, cleanup or keep it going, we are appreciative!

We could still use some student volunteers for the Parish Auction! 

This is a great way for kids to perform some community service, saves St. Al's the money we'd otherwise have to pay for adult waitstaff, and is a lot of fun!

Students should arrive at 4:30pm and will be done between 9:30pm and 10:00pm. Students will assist with table and other set up. They will serve appetizers to guests during cocktail hour. After that, they will work in the dining area, clearing salad plates, serving entrees, bringing coffee carafes to the tables and clearing plates, glasses, silverware, etc. at the end of the meal.

We will feed students dinner shortly after arrival. Students should wear a plain, white shirt or blouse and black pants or skirt with comfortable, closed toe shoes. 

Students in grades 4-8 are eligible to serve. High schoolers are also welcome. Sign up here!

This is also the last week to purchase Raffle Calendars!

$25 each and only 600 sold. We will only be selling these until the night of the auction, so get them before they're gone.

You have many chances to win $9,000 in prizes and you do NOT need to be present at the auction to win, as the winning goes all year! Stop by the parish auction table in the gathering space after weekend Masses to pick one up, or stop into the parish or school offices as well. This is a great way for you to support the auction even if you are not attending!

Get ready to compete, connect, and encounter something bigger than yourself!
