This weekend is our final bake sale for the year. Thanks to your generosity and support, we’ve raised over $1500 so far! We’ll use the money to rent a bus to take the students and their families to LaSallette Shrine in Enfield, NH. We’ll have lunch along the way and spend some time doing something just for fun. Thanks again for all your support!

Three of our students…Brianna Blood, Talia Haynes, and Tucker Kirwin…will receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation on Thursday, June 7 and then receive their First Holy Communion during the 10:00 Mass on Sunday, June 10. They have worked very hard to learn about these Sacraments and are ready to fully receive Jesus. Please keep them in your prayers as they finish getting ready for this special time in their lives!
