Winning Week in Sports
Art On-the-Go
"Lord give our children a thirst for knowledge, wisdom and understanding. May their hearts be ready to learn this year, at home, school, and church. Open their ears, may they crave knowledge and seek it out."
 
We pray this in the names of Jesus and Mary. Amen.
 
Blessed Marie Rose, pray for us.
