Dear Families and Friends:

                God is so good to us!  Thank you all for your assistance with the Catholic United Financial Raffle.  I am amazed at Fr. Erik and Fr. Kevin’s investment in our Catholic School.  Fr. Erik has sold over 1000 raffle tickets.  Fr. Kevin is quickly closing the gap.  We also have families that have sold over 300 raffle tickets.  Please return your tickets, money and any unsold tickets on Tuesday, February 21^st so that we can make send all of our information to CUF.  I am deeply grateful for your hard work and dedication on behalf of the school.  May God reward all of us one-hundred fold for the service to our great school.   All of us working together will make this happen!

                                If you are due for renewal of your subscriptions, via our magazine fund drive, you can go to our great website, www.dmcs.cc, and follow the instructions listed there.  The student that you have supported in the past will still get the credit for this sale.  The Magazine drive will be in March. 

The Home and School Butter Braids kick off information went home on Monday.  Last year our Home and School association raised $7,000 for our school which funded our school trips to River Bend Nature Center, busses for special events and many extra-curricular activities.  Please follow the instruction sheets on dates and times for turn in and for product delivery.

FAITH MINUTE from the Catechism:  CCC 1889

“This is the path of charity, that is, of the love of God and of neighbor.  Charity is the greatest social commandment.  It respects others and their rights.  It requires the practice of justice and it alone makes us capable of it.  Charity inspires a life of self-giving.”

If you have kudos, comments or concerns please email me or stop by my office.  My email address is bseidel@divinemercy.cc.  Help us Lord to faithfully love you in community.
