St. Viator Parish School
Viator Voice: September 11, 2018
In this moment, let us pray:
- For the Church, that she may continue to provide care and healing for all, especially those affected by the attacks on September 11, 2001, we pray to the Lord…
- For all victims of violence and terrorism around the world, and for their families, that they may find comfort and peace, we pray to the Lord…
- For the safety of our service men and women abroad, for civil servants who protect us and keep us safe, and for all who live with war and violence, we pray to the Lord…
- For our leaders and for the leaders of nations, that they may work together to address the problems that provide fertile ground for the growth of terrorism, we pray to the Lord...
- For the ability to forgive and for an end to all hatred, beginning in our own hearts, we pray to the Lord…
Please join us for an adoration service from 8:00 to 10:05 PM at St. Viator Catholic Church.

Fr. Tom Von Behron will also be speaking about Christo Rey, a St. Viator Las Vegas College Preparatory School, that educates young people through a rigorous college preparatory curriculum intergrated with a relevant work study experience.
There will be child care provided in the Youth Ministry Room; however, due to the sensitivity of the information conveyed, no children will be permitted in the hall during the presentation.

At the Foundation Dinner on December 1st, we wil select the winner of the entire wine collection from a limited raffle sale of only 100 tickets. Because of the generosity of our donors (you!) this collection has been valued at over $7000 in the past.

Testing...1, 2, 3...
As you plan for next week, here are a few suggestions:
- Get to bed on time. Research shows that being well-rested helps students do better.
- Resolve any immediate arguments before bed. Minimize digital distractions.
- Keep your routine as normal as possible. Upsetting natural routines make make children feel insecure.
- Mention the test to show you’re interested, but don’t dwell on it.
- Plan ahead to avoid any conflicts or stress in finding necessary items
- Get up early to avoid rushing and be sure to have your child at school on time.
- Eat a nutritious breakfast as research shows that they perform better if they have breakfast.
- Be positive. Acknowledge that tests can be hard and that they are devised to that no one knows all the answers. Explain that doing your best is what counts.
It is very important that your child attends school next week. There will be little time to make up any test and it is sometimes difficult to focus and do one’s best when one has to make up a test.
