At St. Philips, we have two opportunities each week to pray the rosary: Mondays after school (parent and student led) from 2:10-2:30 pm and Thursdays after drop off (parents and grandparents) from 8:05-8:25 am. We pray for all the private intentions in the school prayer jar by placing the jar in front of the tabernacle when we pray. We encourage you and your children to place your prayer intentions in the jar and welcome you to join us whenever you can for this powerful prayer time in the church. Please don't hesitate to contact Julie Schnieders (jschnieders@yahoo.com, Mimi Stolpe (mimi_collins@yahoo.com)or Tracy Luiso (tracyluiso@gmail.com) with any questions.
