Perrin's Preview
Dear MSY families,
It is hard to believe we are beginning the Lenten season already! What a fun semester it has been with our Panthers kickoff, an exciting overnight retreat, and an opportunity to serve our neighbors through Room in the Inn. This ministry is vibrant, energizing, and encouraging!
Thank you for all the many different ways you offer support. I hope you will take a moment to note program offerings in the near future. I always happy to answer any questions you may have.
Peace,
Perrin Tribble
Director of Middle School Ministry
