| 1. NATIVITY SCHOOL
APPEAL:
A special thanks go to all who helped last Sunday.
Grade 7 and Ms. Myall coordinated the Mass, the
school choir performed under Mrs. Joe, our Board of Education members
provided support at each Mass, our PTG Executive Board
sponsored the Harvest Festival and the Nativity Men's Club served up
the delicious Pancake Breakfast. It warms
my heart to have such wonderful parents and students so giving. A sincere thanks to Natalie Barrales, past
Nativity graduate, for speaking at each Mass. |

excitement in the air! Don't forget to stop by the Book Fair in
