ALTAR SERVERS NEEDED
StMM Church will soon be celebrating three weekend masses in our church, Saturday 5pm, Sunday 9am and Sunday 11am. There is a need for more altar servers to cover these masses. Two are needed for each mass. If your child is interested in becoming an altar server, please contact Andree to set up a training session. This is a wonderful way for our young people to serve in the Church. Time spent as an altar server can also be used to fulfill service hour requirements.

MONARCH MONDAYS
Thank you to all our wonderful families and family-owned businesses who have already sponsored Monarch Mondays. Want to see your family or business name on the back of our shirts? Hurry - the sponsor window closes on Tuesday, November 24th at 11:59 pm so the printer has time to prepare for the online store to open in early December. This is the final week!
Sponsorship is quick and easy - and we'll give you and your kids free Monarch Mondays shirt(s) at all sponsor levels! Want to spread the word about your business? Maroon level sponsorship comes with a spotlight post on social media, and Gold level sponsorship comes with a group post. We welcome family sponsors too - your kids will love seeing your family name on the back of our shirts! Our fundraising focus is to continue PSO programming, and improve our outdoor and recess spaces and options at school.
“Monarch” level sponsors ($2,500) receive 6 free t-shirts, a spotlight feature on the school’s social media platforms, and their business logo or family name prominently featured on the back of the shirt – the only logos on the shirts! Act fast: only two Monarch level sponsorships are available! Contact Erin Bonasso to secure this exclusive placement.
“Maroon” level sponsors ($1,000) receive 4 free t-shirts, placement at the top of the donor list in larger font, and a spotlight feature on the school’s social media accounts.
“Gold” level sponsors ($500) receive 2 free t-shirts, name in medium font in the middle of the sponsor list, and a group post on the school’s social media accounts.
“White” level sponsors ($250) receive 1 free t-shirt and their name in a smaller font in the donor list.
For a donation of $20, you can help us provide a Monarch Mondays shirt to each member of the StMM faculty and staff.
There are two easy ways to become a sponsor or donate a teacher shirt. You may print the sponsor and staff shirt donor form and mail a check, or you may pay online by credit card or linked checking account through FACTS.
