St. Matthew’s Elementary School’s
Thursday Update
MAY 18, 2023 

Dear St. Matthew’s Elementary School Families,

Yesterday our track and field students participated in the St. Matthew’s “Try It” at Holy Cross Track.   We enjoyed great weather, a positive atmosphere and lots of athletic fun!  I know that many families will be enjoying a fun extra long weekend; let us thank God for allowing us to spend extra time with our families!

Please keep in your prayers our Grade 7 students; the Sacrament of Confirmation will be conferred on them by Archbishop Miller on Tuesday, May 23, 2023.  Let us pray that our students and the students from the parish are filled with the zeal of the Holy Spirit as they receive this important sacrament.

Sincerely in Christ,

Ms. Welsh
