SAVE THE DATE: THE AWESOMENESS IS COMING

We are excited to offer a way to give back to St. Paul the Apostle School! Soon, we will kick off an event to

help raise funds that will benefit all our students and staff. This program will help with funding for important

items and services that are not currently funded at this time.

Here are a few things to note about our upcoming program:

 This program will be extremely easy for you. It only requires about 10 minutes of your time.

 Your students can earn great rewards just for their effort. No money is needed!

 This is an online, donation-based fundraiser, and the email and text message donation requests can

go to people you know anywhere in the country.

Students will bring home more information after our Launch Party presentation on March 25. Please help

your student register and complete the Golden Ticket assignment that very night! All students who

complete the Golden Ticket assignment will receive fun PRIZES. We will also have a lot of AWESOME

drawing prizes!

Families who enter at least 10 contacts will be entered into our nationwide Disney World Family

Vacation giveaway!

We will be sending more emails throughout the program.

***************

AFTERCARE NEWS

Please be aware that aftercare will be using the west playground more as the weather gets warmer. When students are playing the gate will be closed and alley way blocked for care entrance into the parking lot, this is to keep the students safe. If you are picking a child up from small beginnings or aftercare please park on Rusholme and walk to enter through the gate.

PRAYER AFTER SCHOOL

Join Us for Prayer After School During Lent!

Lent is a season of prayer, reflection, and drawing closer to God—and we have a special opportunity for you and your family to do just that!

Each Friday during Lent, St. Paul the Apostle will have All-Day Eucharistic Adoration in the church. At 3:00 PM—the Hour of Mercy—the St. Paul Singers invite you to come straight from school and join us in praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet together in song.

This is a beautiful and powerful family devotion, helping us all to reflect on Christ’s mercy and love during this sacred season.

What: Divine Mercy Chaplet in Song
When: Fridays in Lent at 3:00 PM
Where: St. Paul the Apostle Church

Bring your family, take a moment to pause in prayer, and grow in faith together this Lent. We’d love to see you there!
