They participate as lectors, readers of intentions, and gift bearers. All-school Masses for grades BK-6 are planned for First Fridays, holy days, and other special occasions. Parents, as well as all parishioners, are welcome to attend school Masses.
Monthly, each classroom spends time with the Blessed Sacrament during the parish’s First Friday Eucharistic Adoration. Throughout the year, students also take part in seasonal prayer celebrations such as Stations of the Cross, May Crowning, All Saints Day celebration and praying the Rosary.
