Dear OLMC Parents,
Happy Solemnity of the Annunciation! Thank you to all of you who have signed up for online giving in the past week. We certainly appreciate you taking the time to set up a way to give online, especially when we are not able to drop our tithes into the offertory basket at Mass. Thank you also for your prayerful support of our Church and its various ministries; we can never underestimate the power of prayer!
I would also like to thank you for all of the various ways you have partnered with OLMC School during these last 5 days of E-Learning. Thankfully, today was the last day of distance learning before spring break. I hope your long break affords you some rest from work and allows you to spend extra quality time with your family in a creative way which limits screen time.
Last week, I sent you an email to announce the changes Governor Holcomb implemented regarding the continuance of distance learning in the state of Indiana. Essentially, the earliest we could possibly return to school is on Monday, May 4. In the meantime, I would like to communicate to you the OLMC E-Learning Day lessons for the month of April. We will be officially functioning as a regular school day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays of the week through May 1. Mondays and Fridays will not be official school days for students, but professional days for teachers to use to do their grading, planning, etc.

I pray that on this solemnity of the Annunciation, we may receive a multitude of blessings from Our Lady. We thank her for saying yes to God’s will for her life. Mary’s yes, her “fiat,” brought forth the Savior of the world. May we, too, always be ready and willing to do His will, trusting that the plans that God has for lives flow from His infinite goodness and love.
In the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
Sister Maria Benedicta, O.P.
