When will the 2 grants be awarded?  A special Graduation Mass for all graduates will be celebrated on June 13th, 9:30am.  The awards will be announced during the Mass.

Why did we establish this award?  We established this grant as a way to honor and support families whose children are actively involved in the life of this Church.  Our hope is to encourage future participation for our younger members.
