Happy Wednesday!
Our first Twinkle Tuesday of the year for St. John Vianney Catholic School in St. Petersburg was a success, raising $800 for their school! Continue to keep all those rebuilding from the hurricanes in your prayers, as well as those traveling into the devasted areas to help.
October is the month of the Most Holy Rosary and Mrs. Ickes' third graders are busy preparing to present a Living Rosary. Mark your calendar for Wednesday, October 23, at 10 a.m.
Race for Education is next week. Contact Mrs. Tice if you are interested in volunteering.
Have a wonderful day and thank you for all that you do for our school!
Sincerely in Christ,
Mrs. Tice
