The toys arrived not a moment too soon! Christmas Connection’s shelves were getting bare, and their program director was worried. Our school’s toy drive collection of over 300 toys will go straight onto the shelves for shopping! As always, the staff and volunteers who helped me unload the car were overwhelmed with gratitude for our donations. I’m so proud of our school, and so proud of our third grade!

Next Green Team meeting will be Thursday, December 15th from 3:00-4:15pm in the school art room. We will be doing Up-cycled Christmas crafts! You must sign up to attend. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/20F0D45AEA92BA31-green6

Volunteer During Basketball Season! - We will need help at the gym when CSSE hosts basketball games. We will need gym monitors, concession help, and scoreboard help. If anyone wants to volunteer they can sign up at this link or email Dave Frame at dsaframe@gmail.com or Aaron Hartman at shocktroop2023@yahoo.com.

Volunteer in the Lunchroom - We need a few volunteers to cover a shift in the lunchroom once a week on Fridays. Volunteer will help pass out lunches, monitor students, and clean tables between lunch periods. See available dates and sign up to earn a couple of Time and Talent hours! Must have current Safe Environment.

Catechesis of the Good Shepherd - We need volunteers for Catechesis of the Good Shepherd (CGS)! In order to provide this beautiful Montessori-based approach to religious education, we need volunteers to assist teachers in the Atrium (you do not need to be a trained catechist) and to help prepare materials for the children. Materials making will take place at 9:30am Friday, Dec 16th in the Bride's Room of the CHURCH. More dates will be available beginning in January. Please contact Christie Ardoin if you can help in either capacity or for more information: goodshepherd@steugenes.org.

Congrats to the Van Peursem family on the birth of a healthy baby brother for Andrew last month! Welcome sweet baby Thaddeus!

Still Need Safe Environment? We still have a lot of people wanting to volunteer who have not completed Safe Environment. ALL ARCHDIOCESAN/PARISH/SCHOOL EMPLOYEES & ADULT VOLUNTEERS who have contact with minors or vulnerable adults must complete the new online Safe & Sacred Training (2020) including a background check. Until all steps have been completed in the online training portal, employees and volunteers may not serve at the parish/school or organization. Please complete this google form to send in your name and email address to Jennifer Goodrich so that she can send you information to begin the process! You must have updated SE if you plan on driving on field trips, being a homeroom parent, or coaching a team, etc.

Advent Penance Rite - During the season of Advent, St. Eugene holds a Penance Rite, bringing in more than a dozen priests to hear confessions. Please join us for this wonderful opportunity for reconciliation and prepare your heart for Christmas. Service begins at 6pm Monday, Dec. 19 in the church. Curious how to make a good confession? Check out the church website.

Pray for our staff, students and their families. We are grateful to be back together at school, and pray that the school year is full of engaged learning, collaboration, patience, and love. | Please pray for all of our 70+ students and staff who have been sick daily this past week. May they soon return to school healthy and happy! | Please pray for the mother of Mrs. Aleman as she recovers from surgery. | Please pray for the healing and comfort of Sasha, granddaughter of Mrs. Belva Neal.
