School News

There will be no school on Monday in order that we might clean up after the Festival. Iowa testing will begin for the 4th& 6thgraders on Tuesday.

Funeral Luncheons

Funeral Luncheons will begin again in the very near future. We are asking for volunteers to work the luncheon and/or donations of food. Hopefully, enough parishioners will donate food when called so you will only need to donate every few funerals. If you would like to participate in this worthy cause, please contact Carol Inman at 358-5105.
