A note from Sister Marie Isaac, OP:
In the Church, today is the Feast of the Holy Family. I hope each one of you and your families had a blessed Christmas and are enjoying your break. As we bring in the new year together, know of my prayers for you. This newsletter has a few important dates to remember as we return to school for the second semester. Please pass along the LINK for our SVdP Open House to families you think may be interested in joining our community. Word of mouth is our best tool for attracting new families.

Auction Asks
Does your family have access to anything special – even if you don’t think it’s that special? This could be a family home, sporting event tickets, connections to concert venues, singers, athletes, etc. We are always looking for additional auction items that can be packaged with the current packages building within our classes, or that can stand alone as live or silent auction items. Please feel free to email those ideas or items to 2023svdpgala@gmail.com – no item or idea is too big, too small or too out there!
