Join us for our Parish Family Faith Day as we discover a little more about the communion of saints, those who have gone before us and the special people among us that live saintly lives. Our Kindergartners will have a saintly presentation and song for us, our seventh graders will tell us about our newly canonized saints, we will look at the Beatitudes as our example of holiness and we will make “Saint Awards” to thank our living examples of holiness. Our third grade class will lead us in a closing Litany of Saints prayer. Come and celebrate ALL our saints!
