GLVN Bulletin
News for GLVN Volunteers (Thông Tin cho Thầy Cô GLVN)
March 9, 2017
Dear Catechists,
I hope that you all had a blessed first week of Lent. As we enter into week 2, we are very blessed to be able to spend time in retreat together to prepare ourselves spiritually in this season of Lent. Please join us on Saturday from 5:00-9:30 p.m. for our Catechist retreat. The evening will start off in the teacher's lounge with dinner and bonding time as a Catechist team. Then we will head over for Sơ Hồng Quế's session with us.
This will be a wonderful evening together before we help lead the kids in their Lenten retreat as well. Please be sure to read the details on where your class should be on Sunday, as the schedule is slightly different than usual. There is also an important note about Confession times for all classes below, so please read that in detail to ensure that we get all our students to Confession during this Lenten season.
Thank you everyone for all that you do!
In Christ,
Chi
(PS. If there is anyone who didn't give up Facebook for Lent ... could you please share the link to this bulletin on our Teacher Facebook group for me? :-) Thank you!!)
Remember to change the time on Saturday night before you go to sleep!
Spring FORWARD 1 hour!!!!
Otherwise you'll be late for GLVN!!!

This year, students will earn tickets, and they can exchange them any time throughout the GLVN Challenge for all sorts of fun prizes. It's a little like Chuck E Cheese. This way the students are really just challenging themselves (versus competing against others). Last year's competition got a little to competitive, and so we wanted to change it up a little this year to keep it fun.
Challenge activities will be handed out before the Mass time, and are always due the following Sunday to earn the points for the specific activities. No late submissions will be accepted.
Click here to read the details on how to participate. Please encourage your students to take part in the GLVN Challenge!
Weekly challenge worksheets will also be posted online at https://www.smore.com/4avnt
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED ON MARCH 19
On March 19 during the lunch hour students will recite the prayer of St. Thomas Aquinas for the weekly challenge. We need about 5-6 people to help at the challenge booths to listen to the kids pray it and give them their tickets. Please let me know if you can help out!
Meet in the Teacher's Lounge at 5:00 p.m. for the retreat!
Confession for Students During Lent
Please make sure you are aware of when your class will go to Confession, and help us prepare them on those days. Please see c.Đào in the office if you need copies of the examination of conscience or have any questions about the Confession schedule.
