We kicked off our A Family of Faith program on Sunday!  At Mass the students happily returned to their usual front and center seats as they joined Father Thi for the homily.   
Afterwards we had a party honoring the canonization of Saints Carlo Acutis and Pier Giorgio Frassati.  It started off with a saint scavenger hunt where families discovered their Faith Family small group for the year, made new friends and reunited with old ones.

The Homeless Outreach Ministry was present offering blessing bags to decorate and snack bags to assemble.  Games included pin the soccer ball and pipe on the saints with both students and parents taking part in the fun.  Prayer intentions were added to a prayer chain for our newly canonized saint to pray for on our behalf. 

A good time was had by all and we are looking forward to growing together in faith in this new year!
