Dear OLG Families,
What a Light-up-the-Night it was last week... many hands at work to put on this great community moment, and especially thank you to the WS Blog for the great coverage too!
Our Advent continues this week, with our second week Prayer Service yesterday and today our Mass of the Immaculate Conception. Our message at church today reminded us that while Mary, the mother of Christ, had a special sin-free life, she also counted on the Grace of God in her life. I pray for all of our community to have the peace and understanding that God's Grace can provide!
Join the community at this Sunday's celebration of our namesake, Our Lady of Guadalupe and the story of her appearance to (Saint) Juan Diego... Fiesta following the 11am Mass! As a whole school we'll be back in church on the true date of Dec 12th for the Feast Day as honored world wide! Read on below for more of the life and energy of our many events this next week of school, and also peeking ahead into January!

Yours in Christ,
