Updates from Parent Meeting

We'd like to thank those of you who attended yesterday's first Communion Parent Meeting for your patience as we tried to resolve our technical difficulties.  The videos we tried to show are below in this post. Unfortunately, Blogger would not allow us to embed the Fr. Barron videos. Please click on the links and watch them. They are very interesting and nourish your faith better than watching cats play the piano can (although cats playing piano are still very funny).

A copy of the updated calendar can be found on the sidebar.  A hard copy will go home with the children next week.  

Amy forgot to mention that the CCD children should continue to practice the song "Come to Jesus" (video after the Fr. Barron talks) for their First Reconciliation on February 8. All of the children will be learning a new song for First Communion Masses at 2 PM.  It's called "Perfect Love" and you can listen to it at this link (no video
available): http://bit.ly/1eC0nWP

As always, please let call if you have any questions about anything at all.

First Communion Parent Meetings next week

Just a friendly reminder that the First Communion parent meetings are next week: Tuesday at 3:45 PM, Wednesday at 7:00 PM, and Thursday at 2:30 PM. We will have Confirmation candidates babysitting again in the Teacher's Lounge for anyone who wants to leave their children there. 

These meetings are important and required for anyone whose child is making their First Communion this spring. See you then!

CCD First Reconciliation Services Rescheduled

The First Reconciliation services originally scheduled for Dec. 14 will take place on Saturday, February 8, 2014 at 11 AM or 2 PM.  Children will keep their originally scheduled times. Please call Amy Giglio with any questions.

Please practice the song "Come to Jesus" with the children. See the post below for the video for the song.
