Last Friday, we joined other schools in our diocese to raise funds and prayers in support of Sacred Hearts School in Lahaina as they work to rebuild after the fires. Students dressed in brightly colored clothes & donated money. Each classroom set aside time to pray for them too.
It's been a week since we invited all our grandparents and grandpeople to breakfast and we are still beaming about how wonderful it was to see them! The students were proud to show them off and share time in the school with them. We can't wait for a bigger, better event in 2024.
