Stocking Stuffers for our Sister Parish

Through October 14, the Respect Life Club is collecting small stocking stuffer items--small toys, pencils, fancy pens, individually wrapped candy, fidgets, rubber balls, jacks, playing cards, crayons, small coloring books, small dolls, mini books, etc. All items should be new. Donations benefit our sister parish in Louisa, Kentucky.


REVIVE Youth Ministry is this week!

Seventh and eighth graders are invited to join us on Wednesday, October 14, from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. in the school cafeteria. We are excited to see you there! REVIVE meets every second Wednesday of the month. Click here for more information and meeting times. Contact youthgroup@sainttheresaparish.org with questions.


Halloween Concession Stand--Donations Needed

Saint Theresa School is getting ready for some Halloween fun, and our Student Council needs your help filling our concession stand with tasty treats and hot dogs! Click here to sign up; please deliver all items to Saint Theresa School lobby by October 18. Thank you for helping our Student Council make this Halloween event a fun and festive one! We greatly appreciate your support!


Bring a Trunk to Trunk or Treat!

Our class trunks are coming together, and we’d love to give the kids even more trunks to visit during our two-hour event! If your family would like to decorate a trunk of your own and hand out treats, please sign up here. You don’t need to be a room parent to join in—just come ready for some Halloween fun!


Help Us Fill Our Float with Treats!

The New Cumberland Halloween Parade is a few weeks away, and we’re getting ready for another fun night representing Saint Theresa School in our community! To make sure our float has plenty of treats to hand out along the parade route, we need your help stocking up on candy.


If you’d like to help, please use the sign-up link below to donate a bag (or two!) of candy. Every donation helps us get parade-ready and makes the night a little sweeter! Sign up today to donate candy for the New Cumberland Halloween Parade!

Family Night Out at the Hershey Bears

What better way to kick off Discover Catholic Schools Week than a Saint Theresa Family Night Out at the Hershey Bears? Join us Sunday, November 15 at 3:00 p.m. as the Bears take on the Charlotte Checkers at the GIANT Center. It’s Kids Night, and the first 3,000 kids ages 15 and under will receive a knit hat courtesy of Belco.


All seating sections are open, and ticket prices vary by section. If you’d like to sit near other Saint Theresa families, we’re aiming for the 100 Level Defend Zone, Sections 109–113. After selecting your seats, you can add a parking pass for $17.60 (typically $35.00). Get your tickets here. We hope to see lots of Saints cheering on the Bears!
