Family Prayer 

Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time

Reading I : Leviticus 19:1-2, 17-18

To be like God is to be loving.

• Leviticus 19 is a collection of miscellaneous laws concerning conduct.
• Keeping the Ten Commandments, worshiping God, and living justly were prescribed.
• The reason for all the laws is to be like God.

Reading II : 1 Corinthians 3:16-23

To love one another is to live.

• Wisdom had divided the community.
• Worldly wisdom is folly to God.
• Obey God and be like God. To be like God is to love one another.

Gospel : Matthew 5:38-48

Forgive and love to conquer evil.

• The Old Testament "an eye for an eye," was an attempt to limit evil.
• Monetary fines had become more common.
• Jesus advised that evil is conquered by good.

A Message from Mr. Oberdorf

Athletic Director

After many years of volunteering on our athletic board (she started when her son was in K5 and he is now finishing his sophomore year in high school) and a year as our athletic director, Trisha Jambor, has decided to resign from the board. She stated she has enjoyed every minute of it, but it is time for her to step aside. She has graciously volunteered to help with our transition to our new Athletic Director. A big thank you to Trisha for her dedication and commitment to SJE athletics throughout the years. 

Volunteer Needed for Athletic Director

SJE is in need of a volunteer to be our new Athletic Director. We currently have teams throughout the school year. Soccer in the fall, volleyball and basketball in the winter, and track and futsal in the spring. The Athletic Director, in conjunction with the athletic board, will take on the responsibility of providing outstanding experiences and opportunities for our SJE student athletes. It is a great opportunity to serve our community and help our children grow. If interested in becoming the Athletic Director, or helping with our athletic program in any way, please contact Mr. Oberdorf either by phone 414-321-8540, email boberdorf@sje.school, or by stopping in the school office. 

Thank you for supporting our school.

100 Day celebration.

Look at who is 100 and some 100 day activities.

Forensics

Our SJE forensics team continues to bring home hardware. Our team took 1st place in the small schools division at the Pilgrim Park Middle School Meet. They also took 2nd place in the Indian Community School Meet a few weeks ago. Many of the team members have already qualified for the state meet. Congrats to the team and their coach, Mrs. Wisniewski, on their accomplishments so far.
