UGH! WHAT AM I GOING TO MAKE FOR DINNER?
Do you ask yourself this almost daily?
Are you tired of the same old recipes?
The families of Saint Andrew Catholic School are compiling a COOKBOOK of our favorite recipes! This project is a fundraiser supporting the 2019 Saint Andrew Catholic School Auction, and 10% of cookbook sales will be donated to our Food Pantry Outreach.
We need your recipes! Some of us love to cook...and some of us,
well, don’t...but regardless of how you feel, we all have to eat! We have an eclectic group of families that support and contribute to this school. As a COMMUNITY, we can INSPIRE each other!
Contributing recipes to the cookbook is an EASY process!!! Here is how:
2) Login with the username:
wildcat.recipes18
and password:
popcorn496
3) Briefly read the “Recipe Writing Tips.” It will show you just how SIMPLE this process is. Include what makes this recipe SPECIAL TO YOUR FAMILY in the NOTE section.
4) Click on the “Add Recipes” tool and follow the prompts.
5) SPELL CHECK; Preview; SAVE!
Submit ALL recipes by NOVEMBER 2nd!
Cookbooks will be ready by Grandparent’s Day (February 1) and will sell for $25/each.
Like most efforts at Saint Andrew Catholic School, the success of this project depends on YOUR SUPPORT. Please, take 5 minutes to share something from the heart of your home with your Saint Andrew’s family.

MONTH OF THE HOLY SOULS
Jesus said, "I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die."
Each year during the month of November, the Church offers us the opportunity to remember in a special way our deceased relatives and friends. We do this with a firm faith in our future reunion with them forever.
Saint Andrew Catholic School faculty & students would like to offer prayers for the deceased loved ones of our alumni, benefactors, friends and family members. We have opened an online form for you to indicate the names of your beloved deceased. We will pray for the Holy Souls of Purgatory during weekly all school Masses, morning prayers, and while attending adoration throughout the month of November. In this way, your remembrance and ours will be made more personal.
Please do not send an offering. This is Saint Andrew Catholic School's gift to you. Thank you for all you do for SAS!
Please

to enter the names of your loved ones.

The Spiritual Life Committee at Saint Andrew Catholic School offers two blessed statues to its families: A statue of Rosa Mystica and an Immaculate Heart of Mary Statue.
Each week (from Wednesday afternoon to the following Wednesday morning) two families will have the opportunity to take these statues home and use them as a source of inspiration, prayer and reflection. The tote bag containing the statue will also have suggested prayers. This special tradition will hopefully be one full of meaning and faith for each of you.

40 DAYS FOR LIFE CAMPAIGN!!!
The Knights of Columbus would like to remind you to sign up for the 40 Days For Life Campaign to pray at the Planned Parenthood Clinic across from Harris Hospital Southwest in Fort Worth.
The time slots are only for one hour. If you have never ever tried it, we challenge you to go at least one time to see what it is like. And if your time is extremely limited, please try and attend on those days when abortions are actually performed. Although it is difficult to know for sure which
days those are, it is our understanding that those days are likely Thursday-Saturday. So let your presence be a “sign” for them to listen to their heart and God to turn around and decide to bring another one of God’s beautiful baby boys or girls into this world. Of course, your presence on the days when abortions are not likely performed still sends a powerful message for the workers going in and out of Planned Parenthood, those who go to planned parenthood for any reason, those trying to make sure they know where to go for their abortion appointment, and for anyone who happens to
drive by the facility!
Below is a link for signing up for the 40 Days For Life Campaign:
