Truly, we live with mysteries too marvelous
to be understood.
How grass can be nourishing in the
mouths of the lambs.
How rivers and stones are forever
in allegiance with gravity
while we ourselves dream of rising.
How two hands touch and the bonds will
never be broken.
How people come, from delight or the
scars of damage,
to the comfort of a poem.
Let me keep my distance, always, from those
who think they have the answers.
Let me keep company always with those who say
“Look!” and laugh in astonishment,
and bow their heads.
by Mary Oliver
Remembrance Day Official Guests
SES Sock and Mitten Drive
Our SES serves committee is ready for our next project - a sock and mitt drive for the Morning Star program through Catholic Social Services! Through the month of November we are asking staff and students to donate adult socks and mitts, and we will donate them to the Morning Star Program.
Halloween Candy Trade-In Event
November 4 & 5 the Kind Kidz Club will be in the front foyer, handing out trades to students who feed our candy monster! Students will be able to donate anytime between 8:45am and 9:30am on those days. The candy will be donated to local agencies, and the students will get a treat in return for their kindness!
St. Mary's, Sacred Heart Parish Sacraments
Sacraments are physical signs of God's grace living through us. They are a direct link between our physical lives and the divine.
