United in ONE Spirit

Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?

1 Corinthians 3:16

Catholic Identity

A SEASON FOR SLOWING DOWN During this sacred season of Lent, we will intentionally slow down so that we can pay closer attention to our relationship with God, our neighbors and our planet. During Mass today, Fr. Miguel asked us to reflect on how the pillars of prayer, fasting and almsgiving can guide us for a more enriching Lenten experience. How can practicing these pillars help you to live in solidarity with our sisters and brothers around the world? Visit crsricebowl.org to learn more

Beginning with next Wednesday, each week during our school Mass, we will bring up our Rice Bowl gifts. Please send your child with any offerings they may have on Wednesday and we will combine them with the rest of the school and our parish community to support Catholic Relief Services.

Night of Angels is live!

Fish Fry Fridays are back!

Are you looking for a way to spend your Friday evenings in Lent? No better way than with your parish family. Fish Fry's are from 5:00 - 7:00 and it is one yummy meal! If you would like to join us, please enter and exit the building through the Mary Statue door. If you are picking up from after care first, you will have to sign your child out, they will be in the Media Center, then exit through the front school doors before heading to the Mary Statue door to join in the Fish Fry fun! Don't forget to check out the artistic renderings of our 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students placemats. A special thank you as well to our 8th grade for working to set up the fist fry.

We are still in need of volunteers to make this an amazing event and who is better than our amazing parents? Please contact Jennifer Longworth at jlongworth@cdlex.org to help out.

This is a way that you can still support Mary Queen School from home with no extra cost from you. If you already shop at Kroger, please designate your Kroger card to Mary Queen. Snap your receipts from anyplace that sells food for Box Tops - every little bit helps!
