Dear St. Francis of Assisi students and families,
Prayer In times of difficulty, Lord, we appreciate the support and encouragement of others. In better times we feel strong and more secure. Remind us then to co-operate with other people and look out for the needs of others, being ready to offer a smile, a word, and other support and encouragement. Amen St. Francis Feast and Celebration Thank you so much to all who attended our spaghetti dinner last week. It was a great turnout! Again, we would like to thank Tony’s Pasta and Seafood House for the delicious sauce, and for the generous donations from YFNED and Wykes’ Your Independent Grocer; without food, we would not have been able to be together as we were. A thank you must also go out to the music provided by the Pelayo Family, to the staff and students who helped behind the scenes and the Girls Grade 9/10 Volleyball team who were serving during this celebration. We hope to gather again soon, as it was great fun and full of good conversation!
