"Let's praise God together, for his great love and strength will last forever." (Psalm 117 )
Beginning this Wednesday and for one week, we will be collecting small-sized food cans for Relay for Life. These will be used to hold the candles in the luminarias. The cans will then be donated to St. Joseph Family Center.
We will put these food cans in boxes at morning assembly. If the school collects over 300 cans, we all will have free dress on Friday, June 1. Thanks for your participation.
