RELIGIOUS EDUCATION

.

The Religious Education office will be closed Wednesday 4/16/2025-Thursday 4/24/2025.

Our 7th & 8th grade participated in a Confirmation service project in March for Catholic Charities. Here is a note of gratitude from the program coordinator:

I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation for all that you, your students, teachers and staff did in donating items and assembling toiletry bags for the individuals and families in our housing programs. As I mentioned, we currently assist approximately 150 people of all ages in both Nassau & Suffolk who suffer from various disabilities, and have previously been homeless. I am also so thankful that I was given the opportunity to speak with your Confirmation candidates about the Project Independence and Project Veterans’ Independence Programs.

As we journey with our clients, we often witness the difficulty they face in keeping up with the basic needs they require. Your thoughtfulness and generosity directly alleviate some of the stress they are feeling.

Please know that you have our sincere and ongoing gratitude, and we truly consider all of you a blessing as we continue to serve those who need us most all across Long Island.

Sincerely,

Gena McSorley, LMSW

Program Coordinator

We are so proud of youngsters and thankful to their parents for their generosity.
