Toiletry Drive by Student Council
 
Student Council is collecting toiletry items such as soap, shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, body wash, toothpaste/toothbrushes, razors, etc. for the St. Francis Center in McArthur, Ohio. The St. Francis Center relies heavily on community donations to support the Vinton County area. 
Our collection will take place October 18-22 before school in Dominican Hall. If a student donates five items, they will be able to take part in a Camo Theme dress-down day on Friday, October 22 to align with that night's football theme against Bishop Hartley. 
Campus Ministry Cues

Encounter, Listen, Discern
Pope Francis launched a process leading up to the 2023 synod last week.

“Celebrating a synod means walking on the same road, together. Let us look at Jesus, who encounters the rich man on the road; he then listens to his questions, and finally he helps him discern what he must do to inherit eternal life,” said Pope Francis.
