Additional Information: 

A few messages from our Catholic School Community Council -

Save the Date - Wednesday, June 13, 2018. St. James Catholic School will be hosting a Pasta Dinner and Silent Auction for our Spring Fundraiser. Adults are $10.00 and children are $5.00. This includes pasta with fresh tomato sauce, salad, dinner roll, can of pop, and desert. Our pasta dinner will be catered by Caledon Estates Catering. If you have not sent in your orders, it is NOT too late. We continue to take orders for our Pasta Dinner.  
There will be fun outdoor games/sports organized for our students (weather permitting) during the dinner and auction. 
A reminder that donated items for our Silent Auction need to be brought in to school no later than Monday, May 28, 2018. This will allow time for our volunteers to create the baskets for our Silent Auction. 

Also, we will graciously accept any larger ticket items for our Silent Auction.

 

Special Prayers/Intentions:

 

As we continue with EQAO this week, a special prayer for our students in Grades 3 and 6.

Lord, today is our EQAO test, and we know it is an important day.

Focus our  minds on the things that truly matter,
and help us to answer well, so that what we write will truly reflect what we have been trying to learn this year.

Keep us anchored in your love for us,
which you have had since the first moment we were created.

Give us a confident but humble spirit,
to do well what we are asked to do, and to trust that our best is always good enough for you.

We love you, Jesus, and we know that you love us,
and that you are guiding us each step of life’s journey.

Thank you for the gift of this day … May we use it well, for your glory.

Amen.

Wishing everyone a glorious week!
