Catholic Schools Week – January 26th – February 1st

Catholic Schools Week – January 26th – February 1st
This year’s theme for Catholic Schools week is “Learn Serve Lead Succeed.” Catholic Schools teach students to become future servant leaders, faith-filled disciples, and enriched citizens in our communities, and educators are growing with them.

Please join us in celebrating Catholic Schools Week starting on Saturday January 25th with a chance chat with some Catholic Schools students, and enjoy Wine & Cheese in the Parish Hall after the 3:00 PM Mass. Or join the All Saints school community at the All School Mass on Thursday, January 26th at 9:00 AM, at Our Lady of Fatima. And please keep All Saints School in prayer this coming week.

We will all be called on to participate in and volunteer at fundraising events, and to give of our time, money, and spirit to help reach our goal. More info about upcoming events coming soon!

Epiphany Celebration – Thank you’s!

Thank you so much to everyone who helped to make the St. Ann Star of Wonder Epiphany Celebration such a wonderful event!
