Parents of students in Levels 1 through 6 on Monday evenings are most welcome, indeed encouraged, to bring their children to PREP tomorrow evening, Tuesday, February 16.

BEWARE OF ICE!
February 14, 2021 by ·
IMPORTANT! Lots of icy roads and walkways this morning! FOR YOUR SAFETY, PLEASE CONSIDER STAYING HOME AND JOINING US VIA OUR LIVESTREAMED MASS AT 11:00. You can access the livestream through our Facebook page or the Parish website.
If you do decide to physically join us Mass, please be careful. The safety of our parishioners is a priority for us. We have new cement walkways this year and, for the first season, we are unable to put ice melt on the walkways without damaging the uncured cement. Therefore, we are using sand. However, the ice is so severe this morning that we blocked off several walkways to the church. We ask your cooperation in using only those walkways which are open. Do not use walkways blocked by cones. Thank you for your cooperation.

POT OF GOLD UPDATE 1/2/21
February 2, 2021 by ·
Due to the extreme weather, and a delay in having snow cleared from the church campus, we are once again postponing the February 1st Pot of Gold Lottery drawing. The drawing will now be held on Wednesday evening, February 3, at 7:00 PM. IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are dropping tickets off today or tomorrow, YOU MUST MARK THE ENVELOPE WITH THE DRAWING DATE FOR YOUR TICKETS, EITHER FEBRUARY 1 OR FEBRUARY 7. We must avoid confusion with tickets being dropped off for both the February 1st drawing and the February 7th drawing. Any tickets not specifically marked with the date of February 7 will be included in the February 1st drawing. THANK YOU!
Watch for Updates on Pot of Gold Drawing

Currently, the Pot of Gold drawing is still scheduled to be held tonight.
As of right now, the drawing is still scheduled to be held at 7PM this evening. Please watch our website and Facebook page for any updates. Our primary concern is for the safety of the volunteers and those who need to drop off tickets. We will continue to monitor the situation and post updates as appropriate.
