In the last school year, children prepared Thanksgiving baskets, participated in the trip to feed the homeless in Paterson, prepared gifts for the elderly in Totowa, made post cards, prepared gifts for mothers and fathers, served as altar servers during our Holy Masses, and served as lectors.  We are grateful for their participation in these and other activities.  We especially wish to thank parents and guardians for their support and involvement.

May the Lord bless you all, keep you safe, healthy and a fun filled summer. Sunday school will begin again on Sunday Sept. 11, 2022.
