Lost and Found:
Our parent volunteer went through the Lost and Found today. 10 items had children's names on them and were returned to their owners. Thank you to the parents who took a minute to label your child's items. Over 30 items remain in the lost and found that could not be returned because they were not labelled, including some very nice runners, a backpack, Cambridge uniform pieces and a whole lot of jackets. Please click here to see a list of current items in the lost and found.
PEC Update:
Mr. Mike Fortino has had to step down from his role as Vice Chair due to personal reasons. We want to thank him for his years of dedicated service to our school and parish community. Mrs. Luisa Cenedese has been appointed as interim Vice Chair for the remainder of this school year. Luisa has previously served as Chair of the PEC, and has been a part of our school and parish community for many years. She comes with a wealth of knowledge and experience- welcome back Luisa and thank you in advance for your service.

Youth Event: The Inter-Apostolic Youth Conference, hosted at our parish on September 7, ended on a high note, leaving participants with a profound sense of fulfillment. Over 30 of our own youth members took part in this inspiring event, which focused on spiritual growth, leadership development, and building a strong sense of community.
Both youth leaders and participants left the conference with renewed faith and a stronger commitment to making a positive impact in their communities. To keep this momentum going, we invite you to join us for another meaningful Youth Ministry event on Saturday, October 26, at 2:30 p.m., in the Columbus Room at Precious Blood Parish.

God Bless,
Mr. Heah and Mrs. Krammer
