The kids were told last week in their religious ed classes that if they wanted to, they could dress up as their favorite Saint (or make a t-shirt or a shield decorated in their honor) and march in today with the Monsignor. So after a long week of researching, Mira decided that she wanted to honor Saint Luke, the patron saint of doctors & physicians. She really wants to be an obstetrician - not surprising considering how much she LOVES babies! She watches TLC and Discovery Health channels non-stop!

All Saints Day
Today is the day to honor all of the Saints in the Catholic faith and our parish is having a wonderful "All Saints Festival" with lunch provided by the Knights of Columbus (provided, of course that we all bring non-perishable food donations).
The kids were told last week in their religious ed classes that if they wanted to, they could dress up as their favorite Saint (or make a t-shirt or a shield decorated in their honor) and march in today with the Monsignor. So after a long week of researching, Mira decided that she wanted to honor Saint Luke, the patron saint of doctors & physicians.

So, we found a great image of a stained glass which depicts the Ox, often seen with or as a symbol of Saint Luke, and made a t-shirt for her to wear. It was a great event and reminder of the wonderful examples the Saints are for us.
