HABITAT FOR HUMANITY
Have you ever wondered how you could help someone make a real difference in their life? Here is your opportunity! We are organizing a team of volunteers who are 18+ years old and are willing to help build houses for low income people who can’t afford a standard mortgage. We are looking to build a team that can support the Habitat for Humanity on perhaps, a monthly basis. This would be a Saturday commitment. Please contact Francesca at 340-0421 if you would like to become a part of this wonderful ministry!
OPEN REGISTRATION
Support Catholic Schools! Even with the many challenges within the Church, a Catholic School education is still the best gift you can give your children! Give them the gift of knowledge and faith! St Therese Catholic School is the Jewel of the North Valley and is registering kids from pre-K through 8th grade for the 2019-2020 school year. The cost of pre-K is half what many day care centers are charging, and your children receive education instead of daycare! Now is your chance to provide your children or grandchildren with a great education in a loving, Christian atmosphere. Scholarships are available. Call 344- 4479 for a tour or to register.
