Dear Parents and Guardians,
I hope you are having a wonderful week.
This is a quick reminder that our Altar Server Training session (1st Communion required) is happening this Saturday, May 30th, from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM. We will be meeting in the church.
As a reminder, a parent must be present with their child during the training. Also, if you forgot to bring in your child's registration form, don't worryโI will have extra copies available there for you to fill out.
We are so excited to see all the students who expressed interest as they begin learning to assist at the altar and practice their faith!
If you have any last-minute questions, please feel free to reply directly to me. (drodriguez@stbernardcatholicschool.com)
Blessings,
