Reading I : Sirach 27:4-7
Praise no one before he speaks.
  • One’s faults show when we are shaken.
  • Tribulation is the test of the just.
  • One’s speech discloses the bent of one’s heart.

Reading II : 1 Corinthians 15:54-58
God gives us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
  • Death will never be victorious.
  • God gave us victory over sin and death through Jesus Christ.
  • Be devoted to the work of the Lord.

Gospel : Luke 6:39-45
From the fullness of the heart the mouth speaks.
  • Why do you notice the splinter in your brother’s eye, but not the wooden beam in your own eye?
  • A good tree does not bear rotten fruit, nor a rotten tree bear good fruit.
  • Every tree is known by its own fruit. What fruit do I bear?

A Message from Mr. Oberdorf
Hello,

Yahoo! We went on our first field trip in two years. The 3-6th graders went to see the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra at the recently renovated Bradley Symphony Center. What a beautiful theater! The performance was outstanding and the conductor taught us how music is recycled. Did you know that “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” and the “ABC Song” are the same? The students enjoyed the performance and it was great to be learning in a different space. Please ask your child if he or she enjoyed the experience and what was learned. Thank you to Mrs. Weyer for putting together this experience for our students. 

Futsal and Track sign up continues. St. John the Evangelist is blessed to be able to offer opportunities to play team sports. Please take advantage of all we have to offer and sign your child up to participate. As the teams form we need volunteers to coach and assist with the program. If you have the time and skills to guide our athletes please consider being a coach. Volunteers are needed for us to continue to provide these opportunities. If interested in coaching you may volunteer using the link below or contact Becky Buscher, our athletic director, at ad@sje.k12.wi.us . 

Sign up your child to participate or volunteer using the link below 
Sign up deadline is March 18.

Morning Drop Off Procedure

Please remember for morning drop off we should be entering the playground on Cold Spring Road and leaving on 84th Street. Recently we have had a few cars entering from 84th Street and making a U-turn to join the drop off line. Please follow our drop off and pick up procedures. They are in place to keep our children safe. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
