Dearest Elementary At-Home and Classroom Faith Formation Families,
I hope you had the happiest of HOLY DAYS and are eagerly awaiting the upcoming Lenten season just around the corner (Ash Wednesday is February 22).
I wanted to let you know that Ms. Mona received a new kidney on December 17th! Quite a surprise, Mona was only on the transplant list for two weeks and is recovering beautifully from the comforts of her home (she was released December 23). Let's keep Mona, her family, and the family of the 30 year old that donated the kidney after their loved one's death. I am not sure of her return date, but I will keep you posted.
So, I am back to balancing two full-time positions; please be patient with me and do not hesitate to ask questions. Anything you e-mail to Mona will end up being forwarded to my mailbox. We can get through the rest of Winter together.
We will return to our CLASSROOM sessions on January 22(Sun)/25(Weds) so please get ready for our final push to the end of March. See the attached calendar for the remaining dates.
Of note:
February 19 (Sun) is President's Day Weekend. There are no classes that day.
February 22nd (Weds) is Ash Wednesday. We will hold regular religious education classes that day and have a prayer service at the end where anyone present can receive ashes.
March 22 (Weds) and Mar 26 (Sun) are our final sessions of religious education.
At-Home Formation: Keep pushing through the materials! Mona will be in touch soon.
SAVE THE DATE: July 10-14, 2023/9am-12pm/Vacation Bible School: Stellar. Registration will be available by the last sessions of classroom religious education. We hope you can join us!
God bless and Keep Healthy, Happy, and Whole,
Sarah B.
