For Advent, the Pre-K 4 students performed the song Mary, Did You Know? This has been a beautiful tradition that Pre-K has done for many years. Through this song, the children learn that Jesus is the true reason for the season and spread this message to the rest of the school community with their performance.

Notes & Thoughts Save the date! Our 41st Annual Spring Festival Thursday, March 5th to Sunday, March 8th, 2015 Toy Drive Our traditional toy drive will take place from November 29th until December 20th Pick an ornament from the tree. Toys can be dropped off in the Church Lobby on Saturdays and Sundays and at the Gift Shop on weekdays. Sponsored by: OLL Women s Club Vocation Cup We thank the following families for hosting the Vocation Cup this past week: The Diaz Family The Picazo-Roque Family The Vocation Blessing Cup is a wonderful instrument of prayer and devotion for our parish families. The Cup reminds each host family that it is their responsibility to pray for and foster vocations to the priesthood and religious life. A family is asked to host the Vocation Cup for one week. It will travel from home to home as a sign of our total parish commitment to praying for vocations. Respect Life "We are facing an enormous and dramatic clash between good and evil, death and life, the "culture of death" and the "culture of life'. We find ourselves not only 'faced with' but necessarily 'in the midst of' this conflict: we are all involved and we all share in it, with the inescapable responsibility of choosing to be unconditionally pro-life". -Pope John Paul II, Evangelium Vitae, 28
