Dear Parents,
October is the month of the holy rosary. This is a great time to reevaluate the place the rosary has in our lives. You may want to consider taking a few minutes each day to pray a decade of the rosary for any of your families special intentions. If your schedule allows, please plan to join us in the gym today at 2:00 pm to pray the rosary together as a school community.
Autumn Blessings,
Kathy O'Reilly
