PSR families,

May you be safe and warm this snowy day---we hope to see you tomorrow!

Looking Ahead:

Feb 19th: Class

Feb 26th: Class

March 5th: Ashes and Class

With recent snow days, we are modifying our class on March 5th which is Ash Wednesday. We will be opening our time together with a Liturgy of the Word followed by the distribution of ashes. All parents, siblings, and friends are welcome to join us! This will not be a full Mass, since Ash Wednesday is NOT a Holy Day of Obligation. Following our prayer service, students will return to their classroom for a make-up lesson. Dismissal will be as usual at 6:30pm.

While we are still in Ordinary Time, Lent is looming around the corner in March!

We hope to see you at our upcoming Fish Frys.

Have a student needing volunteer hours? Love to bake? Click the flyer below to sign up to volunteer, and back this year we are accepting NUT FREE homemade desserts. Feel free to drop your desserts off at the PSR front desk on Wednesday evenings, or W-Fr from 7:30-3:30 in the CCC.

We have a couple different opportunities during Lent that we want to invite all parents to attend.

Seven Deadly Sins—Seven Lively Virtues.

Join Bishop Robert Barron for a challenging presentation of Seven Deadly Sins, those great spiritual blocks that inhibit our flourishing in relationship with God and with one another. Bishop Barron shows us how to counteract those seven sinful patterns through a conscious process of opposition which are the ‘seven lively virtues.’

Sessions will be held in the Corpus Christi Center

on Wednesdays from 11:00 am to 12:00 noon.
