Queen of Angels Families,

Happy New Year! I am very excited to continue on with the positive momentum that we have had this school year. Our students and staff are working so hard to grow both spiritually and academically.

In regards to the staff, our school and parish staff will be attending the Eucharistic Formation Day tomorrow, January 14th, at St. Charles Catholic Church. Bishop Rhoades will be presenting three different talks on the Eucharist. This is a great opportunity for our staff to grow in our knowledge of the Eucharist and to help reaffirm how the Eucharist is the body, blood, soul, and divinity of of Lord, Jesus Christ. I am very much looking forward to this time and this educational opportunity. This knowledge on the Eucharist will give us an opportunity to come back and provide more information to our students as well, while we continue in this three year Eucharistic Revival.

I pray that we all continue to open our hearts and minds to grow closer to the Lord through receiving HIM in the Eucharist.

Many blessings,

Mr. Wiegmann

This is a friendly reminder that it is very important that you contact the school office when your child has to be absent, especially due to illness. We are having many incidents where we do not receive a phone call and we have to reach out to get that information. You are welcome to leave a message on the school office voicemail or you can call the school office anytime after 7:50 am and speak with one of our school office staff.

We appreciate your help with this matter.

Rosario en español: Ven y únete con nosotros todos los lunes a las 8:15 A.M. para rezar el rosario en Español . Esta hora fue escogido para que aquellos padres que pueden atender ,después dejar a sus niños al colegio pueden caminar directamente a la iglesia y rezar el rosario. Nuestra Señora promete quién reza constantemente mi Rosario, recibirá cualquier gracia que me pida con la conformidad de la voluntad de Dios .Nuestro Señor Jesús Cristo y la Virgen María te espera.

Paz y Bien,
Laurie Reynolds

Come and join us every Monday at 8:15 and learn to pray the rosary in Spanish. We have three parishioners that have joined us since April and they know already how to pray it in Spanish. I have made prayer cards where you can follow with us. Our Lady promises whoever prays my rosary constantly will receive whatever grace they ask of me in accordance with God’s will. Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary awaits you.
