Dear Faith Formation Families,
Happy Advent! I hope the spirit of Hope and Love fill your calendar as we make our way toward Christmas! We have several things happening in the weeks ahead. I sent several separate emails to specific groups this week. So be sure to scan your emails for anything coming from Growing in the Spirit that pertains to something your children are registered for.
.
We want to say a special prayer for our First Reconciliation students who will make their First Reconciliation this Saturday! They are now half way through their busy Sacramental year! Parish penance services are also offered for all of us to follow the example of our young people and clean our souls for Christmas! This opportunities are listed below.

Children’s Nativity rehearsal schedules were sent out to those registered to be in the pageant. If you did not receive it, check your email and spam folders and then email me if you still cannot find it so I can get you that I portent information.
We have Christmas parties upcoming next week and the information for those will also be found below. We hope you can join 8s in the fun and fellowship that these community events offer. It has been pure joy to watch everyone get to know each other and enjoy learning about our Faith traditions in a fun and safe environment. Who could ask for anything more?
