Reporting from Monday Morning Magic November 27, 202, post-Thanksgiving weekend edition!

Mrs. O recognizes the choir for their great work at the 8:30 Mass on Sunday. Lots of parishioners had great things to say about their beautiful songs! 🎶And we’re proud of our 2nd graders who attended that mass, and who are preparing to receive the sacrament of Reconciliation 🙏🏽 Lots of Thanksgiving Birthdays this week, too 🦃🎂
Big surprise for our Root Beliefs! Instead of reciting and repeating our Root Beliefs, Mrs. Pearson turned it into a song, and third grade sang it for us! 🪕
