LAST WEEKEND TO SELL ADS! After the deadline we will still accept donations, but no more ads.

VALENTINE’S DAY DANCE FOR HAITI: Encourage your students to attend this event to support our twin school in Hai-ti. Have fun and perform an act of charity at the same time. See announcement elsewhere in the Sentinel for details.

SPIRITUAL ADOPTION: After the New York pro-death law was passed, one of Mr. Heisler’s English students wrote an es-say on the topic, ending with an appeal to pray seriously and devoutly the Spiritual Adoption Prayer. Many students are tak-ing her advice. I encourage all of you to do the same:

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I love you very much. I beg you to spare

the life of the unborn child whom I have spiritually adopted who is

in danger of abortion. Amen. Thank

You Mrs. Spicer for

providing the

delicious faculty

lunch on Mon-

day and Mrs.

Blanchette for

providing the

priests lunch

and dinner for

Mrs Carroll and

Mr. Westhoff,

and Fr. Noah

for saying Mass

on Friday.

Drivers Ed Registration Forms are available at the front office or click

here. Session I—June 10-20; Session II—July 8-18.

Thank You I wanted to sincerely thank the Seton

community for their continued prayers for my tiny little nephew who was born at 24 weeks gestation on January 27th. Yesterday was a big milestone- he made it to one week! I can only hope and pray that he will hit thousands of more weeks throughout his life. Things are still moment to moment for the little guy, so I welcome continued prayers throughout the next days, weeks and months. I am so thankful we have the Seton community to uplift little Henry in prayer. I know it is also helping Annie and her husband Chris as well as their two daughters, Jocelyn and Leona. 2019 will be a very challenging year for the Schuping fami-ly! My continued and most sincere thanks to all of the Seton community. God bless, Mary (Hayes) Thompson
