Catholic archdioceses and dioceses throughout the United States, are celebrating Catholic Schools Week. The theme this year is “Catholic Schools: United in Faith and Community.” Catholic schools have an important role in the Church’s evangelizing mission, building on the central goal of Catholic schools to form saints. Catholic schools teach and embrace the whole person, body, mind, and spirit. We have been very fortunate that our own St. Peter School has been providing quality Catholic education to the students of the River Parish area for over 94 years.
The second collection this weekend is for the Tuition assistance program of the Archdiocese.
St. Peter School’s annual Alumni and Friends Reunion will take place on Saturday, February 3 rd , beginning with the 5:00 P.M. Mass. The Distinguished Graduate Award will be presented at the Mass. Following Mass, a Dinner and Social will take place at St. Peter School. Dinner will be served from 6:00 P.M. -7:00 P.M. Following the Dinner, IMAGE (all Alumni from SPS) will play from 7:00 P.M.-10:00 P.M.
The second collection next weekend, February 3-4, 2024, will be for St. Peter School. I ask for your generosity in this collection.
