As usual, we have many events planned here at school for our celebration of Catholic Schools Week. Students will be attending Mass next weekend in their uniforms and will be very visible to our parishioners. Students will do all the greeting, collecting, reading, etc. On Sunday at 2 p.m., we will have our Open House featuring tours, refreshments, and meetings with teachers and students. We invite all who are interested in Catholic education to attend.
God bless all Saint Anthony parishioners and have a great week.

At this time we are asked to please make monetary donations. This past weekend the second collection was taken for Haiti. If you were not present or were not prepared to make a monetary donation, it is not too late. Donations can be sent to the Parish Office. The response last week was overwhelming. We raised $13,000.00. However, more is needed to help the people of Haiti during this tragedy. Donations can also be forwarded to: Catholic Charities, 1505 NE 26 Street, Wilton Manors, FL 33305 ATTN: Earthquake Victims.
