Summer is flying by and we are starting to get ready for a fantastic year. The facilities are looking great. I would especially like to thank the Knights of Columbus, parishioners, and parents for coming out to work on our school grounds and facilities. We had over 47 volunteers which accounted for approximately 230 hours of service. We painted statues, mulched, trimmed trees, power-washed the trailers, fixed water fountains, and installed new floor and ceiling tiles. The crew that removed and replaced ceiling tiles deserves a special thank you. They worked all day in a hot, dusty environment. Helping to take care of our facilities is a great example of stewardship. This is part of the St. Francis and John Parish and St. John School is such a tremendous place.
God bless and take care,
Dan Mardell
