Happy Father's Day! Happy Father's Day!

Loving God,
We thank You for the gift of fathers. Bless all fathers today and those who lovingly serve as father figures in our lives.

May they be strengthened by Your grace, guided by Your wisdom, and filled with patience and compassion. Help them to reflect Your love as they protect, nurture, and lead with faith.

For fathers who are no longer with us, may they rest in Your eternal peace.

Through the intercession of Saint Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus and a model of quiet strength and trust in You, we ask this in Jesus’ name.

Amen.

Celebrating our Grade 8s!

Last Friday we celebrated our fantastic Grade 8s at their Farewell. June 13 we celebrated them at mass, blessed them with Father Jim and on June 25 at our final GIFT assembly they will be celebrated once more. As they wrap up their amazing years at St. Luke we look forward to cheering them on as they move into new adventures.


On June 16 our former St. Luke students, who are graduating Grade 12 this year, are coming back to St. Luke to reconnect with their roots. We are excited to share that our Grade 8s will have the opportunity to connect with the grade 12s as another way to support positive transitions, and set them up for awesome success!

Thank you School Council

A huge and special thank you to our amazing St. Luke School Council who treated staff to a delicious meal catered by Stinson Catering, and even covered our supervision! What a treat it was to break bread together, slowly, with hot food, and enjoy time to connect and laugh!


On behalf of all of our St. Luke staff, thank you for taking such great care of us, so we can continue to take care of your precious children!

Summer Plant Waterers?

Thanks to the Coulombe family & Hastings Lake Greenhouses, we have some beautiful flowers in our front pots and we'd love to keep them beautiful throughout the summer.


If you are interested and willing to help out, please email stl@eics.ab.ca. We are working on getting water easily available, but if we can't, we have seen some creative watering with a 5 gallon water jug! Hey, it works!


Thank you in advance for helping to keep St. Luke looking so great!

Thank you for choosing St. Luke Catholic School and Catholic Education!

With abundant gratitude,

Mme Gravelle

Principal
