Do you have photos from quarantine birthday parties, community service projects, parish involvement, zoom sessions, first day photos, First Communion or special memories? We'd love to include them in our Yearbook!

Write a few sentences about your positive memory and be sure to add your family's name. We know life has given us challenges, but good always finds a way through a tough situation!
