🎨✨ Creativity is taking shape in 6th Grade Art! ✨🎨

Our talented 6th grade artists have been getting their hands a little messy while working on their papier-mâché projects with Ms. Massais! 🖌️📰

From building and shaping to painting and adding those final creative touches, our students are learning that great art takes patience, imagination, and a willingness to get a little messy! ❤️

We love seeing their unique ideas come to life and watching their creativity shine. Way to go, 6th grade! 👏🎨 stay tuned for finished products…..

Celebrating 30 Years of Priesthood!

This week, we give thanks for four priests of the Diocese of St. Augustine who are celebrating 30 years of priesthood and faithful service to God’s people:
Father Matthew Ibok, pastor of Corpus Christi Parish in St. Augustine; Father Sebastian Musa, parochial vicar at Assumption Parish in Jacksonville; Father Bernardine Eikhuemelo, pastor of San Sebastian Parish in St. Augustine; and Father Peter Akin-Otiko, pastor of San Juan del Rio Parish in St. Johns.

San Juan del Rio hosted a special celebration this week honoring their shared milestone.

Please join us in congratulating these four priests and praying for them as they continue to serve God and his people with faith and dedication.
