Happy New Year! Welcome Back--from Mrs. Curtiss and the Cafeteria Staff

Please attend Mass this weekend with your Parish Priest. "A holy day has dawned upon us. Come, you nations, and adore the Lord. For today a great light has come upon the earth."

Our virtue for the month of January is "justice." Justice is the virtue that leads us to seek for ourselves only what we truly need and deserve and recognizing others' right to receive what they need and deserve.

The faculty and staff of Our Lady of Perpetual Help School would like to wish everyone

a blessed, peaceful, and safe Christmas and New Year.
