Bible Blessing

On Friday, September 20 our fifth grade students received their Bibles from Father David in a special ceremony after school Mass. The students had a chance to look up some passages and participate in a discussion with Father David. They did a great job.
St. Philomena Cords
Posted by spadmin
The St. Philomena cord is a devotional item worn by someone as a reminder of St. Philomena as well as to ask her prayers. The 6th-8th graders worked on growing in devotion to St. Philomena by reading about her life and and studying her example of heroic virtue. We also prayed a novena for her intercession and on the 9th day received blessed St. Philomena cords from Fr. David. The cords are made of red and white threads with a knot on either end, reminding us of both her martyrdom and purity.
