“Living our vocation to be protectors of God’s handiwork is essential to a life of virtue; it is not an optional or a secondary aspect of our Christian experience” (Laudato Si', 217) We are hosting our second annual day of service at school on our Fall Break Monday October 9 to serve and build awareness about environmental needs of our beloved school. Come to serve, stay for community! Families are welcome come for part or all of the morning! If you are interested in donating any consumable items, bringing gardening equipment to share, or have other ideas for service stations, please let us know by emailing ptiernan@smmschoolde.com.

Join us for a fun, faith-filled day as we strive to model Christ in all we do.
