Please attend Mass this weekend
with your Parish Priest. "I, the Lord, am with you always, until the end
of the world, alleluia." Matthew 28:20
Virtue for the Month of February: Love;
Love is selfless and giving. It means
giving to others those actions and words you would want given to you. It means helping or giving to others knowing
the action may not be returned to you.
Christian love is shown in our respect, our mercy, and our charity
towards others.
Please use extra caution and drive slowly in the parking lots,
especially at the archway. Let's keep
our kids safe! Thank you, Fr. Jim.

The annual big project for Makers Club for this year is a
10 to 20 minute movie. We will film, edit and show our movie as well as
make it available for download and on YouTube. This project is a
long and challenging one which will have many parts over the next few
months:
o
February: principal photography-
Days and times will be announced as we near. We will need to film some
days other than just Tuesdays. Meeting on 24th plus other days and times
as needed.
o
March: Finish
photography and start editing. This is open to 5th graders and up who
participated in the pre-production team. Meetings the 10th 17th and 24th
there is no meeting on the 31st. There are at least two days when we plan
to be filming away from the school where a parent or guardian will need to be
present. There are days when we will be filming group scenes where we
will need more than just our regular cast.
o
More details will come out about that later. If you are interested

Volunteer opportunities
are now just a few clicks away. If you
would like to see how you can help out at OLPH School and earn your PIP hours,
start with our website www.myolph.com (make
sure you have saved that as a favorite on your browser’s tool bar!). From there
you can hover over the “Parent Resources” tab and then click on the “Parent
Involvement Program” in the drop down list. There is a link just below the
title for the “OLPH Volunteer sign-up page” that will take you to our group
page on Volunteer Spot group page. Once you find the spot you want to sign up
for, you only need to enter your email address – you do not need to create an
account. The link at the bottom of the PIP page on the website will allow you
to see when the next Virtus training will be scheduled.

Need PIP hours?
We need volunteers for the Safety Patrol! We have eliminated the position by
kindergarten so we only need a crossing guard.
Don't like the cold mornings?
Sign up for April or May. Please
go online and sign up right away. http://vols.pt/4cZ5vU.

The yearbook is one of
our favorite school traditions. Students
anticipate reliving the school year through photos, student portraits and event
highlights. Support our school and
recognize your student--post a Personal Display of Affection
(PDA) ad in the OLPH yearbook! The deadline for ordering a PDA is March
31st. It is $25 for ¼ page,
$50 for ½ page and $100 for a whole page.

The “Sugar and Spice Brunch” is back on the calendar for
springtime! Save the date for Saturday, April 25th from 10 a.m. - 12:30 pm. Women of all ages gather to share
faith, food, and fun while building virtue in our community! This exciting
event includes lovely decorated tables where you will be served brunch with a
speaker, raffle, music, and door prizes. More info will follow soon.
Planning Committee will meet this coming week on Thursday, February 26th at 2 p.m. in the OLPH Church
Office. If you would like to be on the Planning Committee, contact Cathy
Oliver at catherineoliver@optilink.us or 706-264-6966 whether
you can attend the 2/26 meeting or not.

Our 8th grade class
will lead the school in CRS,
Operation Rice Bowl. We use this
of Lent to grow closer to God, through prayer, fasting and almsgiving. This year, our school will use CRS Rice Bowl,
a faith in-action program that helps families experience Lenten spirituality in
living solidarity with people in need around the world. Your child will receive a cardboard CRS Rice
Bowl and a Lenten calendar, which contains a prayer of reflection for you to
say as a family each day throughout Lent.
Place you child's CRS Rice Bowl on your dinner table or somewhere
visible in your home. Hang the Lenten
calendar on the refrigerator and read today's reflection as a family.
