En las semanas que vienen, todos los feligreses de la parroquia van a recibir una invitación por el correo para asistir a una recepción de la campaña y algunos de ustedes ya la han recibido. Estas recepciones son sociales e informativas que permitan a Padre William y unos miembros del comité de la campaña presentar nuestro plan de acción para Para Cristo Siempre. By attending a reception, you will be presented with information about new Diocesan projects as well as what we plan to do in order to address our own needs here at Our Lady of Fatima. We will have a personalized packet of information prepared for you when you arrive. Al asistir a una recepción, se le presentan con la información sobre la campaña y nuestros propios planes para nuestras necesidades aquí a Nuestra Señora de Fátima. Desafortunadamente, vamos a tener las recepciones solamente en ingles, pero habrá tiempo en el futuro presentar lo más importante de la información a una Misa. Please remember, you will not be asked to turn in a pledge at these receptions. Leave your wallets at home, but bring your questions! When you receive your invitation, please be sure to RSVP as soon as possible! Al mismo tiempo, quiero darle ánimo de asistir a una recepción si puede.

OLF PARISH SCHOOL NEWS KindnesS Counts Update San Clemente’s sponsored KindnesS Counts program was huge success at OLF School that sported this year’s theme color of blue as part of the week long program. The week of February 7-14 was filled with student kindness activities all around our campus. We launched the community program on February 7th with a special assembly that included a cool video showing how infectious kindness can be. The week’s activities included signing a giant KindnesS Counts poster, tying blue ribbons to our fence, creating kindness poems in various genres, creating class kindness posters that were hung around the school, and creating grade level kindness chain links that had student-written acts of kindness on each one. In addition, the students got together with their “buddies” to exchanging Kindness Grams, and the teachers handed out Caught Being Kind cards all throughout the week All in all, we lived the week learning that “It’s good to be kind.” OLF Parish School’s Annual Auction & Gala MARCH 22, 5 – 11PM Prepare to be dazzled as the spirit of the Big Top descends upon our school!
