We got that! Sign up now to pray to 15 min one day per week for the students, teachers, and administrations of OLV and Saint Joseph's - that's only 6 times! Lent began on March 5th, but you can still sign up at https://stjoeacad.org/parents-praying/. You will receive an email reminder each week, to help you "keep on praying." Our goal is to have one parent, grandparent, or friend of OLV and Saint Joseph's to be praying for our schools on each of the 40 days of Lent.

• If you are wanting a way to give back to OLVCS and want to earn service hours, sign up today!
• Mr. Stec will work with Middle School students twice a month on projects around the school that need attention. Students are able to sign up week to week. They do not need to commit to the entire semester.
• If you have any questions feel free to email Terry Stec at stect@olvcs.org.
