Church this month

I have a copy of a note about our class attending Church this weekend with PSR and reciting the Rosary on the back of this newsletter. I really appreciate attendance to the event. I will be there around 9:30 and I would like our class to all sit together. We are also being asked to attend church on the 19th. We will have various students doing jobs. Please attend Mass on both dates to show your support of the school and church. Thank you.
