Dear friends of Our Lady of Grace School,

Blessed remains of Lent to all of you. I write in full anticipation of Easter joy, and sincerely hope that your Triduum observances are filled with much peace and celebration. May the risen Christ bring you much happiness.

Here at OLG school our Lent has been marked with weekly celebrations of The Stations of the Cross, with different grades taking a turn at bringing our thoughts and prayers into sharing the Passion and Death of Our Lord. It was also punctuated by Adoration and Benediction as well as individual celebrations of the Sacrament of Reconciliation for Grades three and above. We keep our second graders in our prayers as they near the time when they will receive Our Lord for the First time in May.

This focus on the richness of our faith is the principal reason that all Catholic (as well as non- Catholic) parents should consider a Catholic education for their sons and daughters. I ask that you assist me in spreading the word that we have open seats to fill and that deadlines for financial aid are coming closer.

Lastly, I hope to see many of you at our school-sponsored Easter Egg Hunt on Easter Sunday following the 9:00 a.m. Mass. We shall have plenty of treat-filled eggs for kids in second grade and below as well as lots of opportunities for photos.

Until then, continue having a prayerful Lent and Holy Week ahead.

In Our Lady’s Name and Love
