Dear Saints Peter and Paul Parents,


The Saints Peter and Paul community was honored to have had the opportunity to share our deepest thanks to our veterans today. We celebrated over 50 veterans and active duty members at our assembly this morning. Let us continue throughout the year to pray for them and remember their service to our country. God bless our military and our veterans!


We want to also honor:

Sergeant Paul Schonour and Staff Sergeant George Stofflet, US Army.
