ST. MICHAEL CATHOLIC SCHOOL NEWS & UPDATES
Soup Bowl Thank You!!
Our Annual SMCS Soup Bowl was huge success, raising over $10,000! We would like to extend a very special thank you to all the volunteers, teachers and staff who worked before, during and after the event. Our soup bowl truly is a community event from the local restaurants/businesses who donate soups, bread, tea and gift cards to the people working it and those who attended the event. Thank you for helping to make this event possible!
FORGIVENESS FEST: 2ND GRADERS
Congratulations to our 2nd graders who received their First Penance on Tuesday, February 5th. It was a beautiful evening filled with many graces and blessings as the 2nd graders received God’s forgiveness for the very first time in this awesome Sacrament. What made it even more special was that many of their parents and family members also went to Confession! May God continue to bless and strengthen our 2nd graders and their families as they continue on their Faith Journey and prepare for their First Holy Communion on May 11th.
