Welcome Week Activities Begin Sunday, August 24th

Join us in the Courtyard for fresh baked cookies and a chance to meet other Catholic students. Kick off the beginning of the school year with Father Christopher Roberts from Our Lady of Mount Carmel. He will be speaking in the Costello Room. Adoration and Confessions will follow at 9pm in the Worship Space. We will be serving up FREE ice cream for you and your friends! Stop by the big blue and white tent in our front yard for a great chance to meet catholic students and find out about opportunities to get involved at St. Francis and with the Catholic Student Union. This is a great chance to make new friends, and eat GREAT food under the tent in the front yard! Bring your friends, the price is unbeatable. Stick around afterwards and joins us as we head over to the Quad Bash!

School Supplies for Haiti Needed by Sunday, Sept. 7th

As we head back to school, so do our brothers and sisters in Haiti, and they need supplies. As our sister parish we have made a committment to provide them school supplies each year. Below is the list of items requested by Fr. Jose for the school:

• WHITE Chalk
• Composition Notebooks
• Pencils
• Pencil Sharpeners
• Backpacks

We will be accepting supplies through Sunday, September 7th. We will also need help moving and packing the supplies, and we are looking for high schoolers to lend a hand. If you are interested in helping out, please contact Donna Polcz at 289-9363. If you have any questions about the Haiti Twinning Ministry please call BJ McKay at 765-215-1704.

God bless each of you for your donations!
