PSR April 2023 Report:
- we have had two VBS planning I am in the process of sending outreach postcards to SEAS parishioners who are not part of PSR nor registered in a Catholic school to invite them to attend
- Our “VBS Wish List Rocket Ship” displaywill go up at the end of the week with stars to take and bring back supplies/gift cards. This will help offset VBS expenses

Below is the newsletter that went out to the PSR families and catechists. You can see we are trying to include FAMILIES more in PSR events to engage and include them in their role as primary in their children’s faith formation.
PSR Happenings for April & May, 2023
Easter Blessings, PSR Families! Please note these dates & end of year events:
PSR will meet as usual for the following classes:
Wednesdays: April 12 & 19* (*2nd grade First Communion Practice with parent(s))
Sundays: April 23* & 30 (*except 2nd grade will not have class due to First Communion that afternoon at 2 pm)
PSR on Wednesday, April 26 and Sunday, May 7 will be a ROSARY & MAY CROWNING FAMILY EVENT, not the regular class. Parents: please note: your child will not go to their classroom as usual but families will gather in the PARISH HALL. Weather permitting, we will go to the Prayer Garden as a group to pray the Rosary. We will return to the Parish Hall, process around the hall with flowers, and sing songs as we present the flowers in vases in front of the Mary statue. One of the children will be selected ahead of time to crown Mary. Afterwards, there will be refreshments and we will recognize and thank their catechists.
PSR MASS and PIZZA DINNER for ALL (Sunday & Wednesday attendees) will be on Wednesday, May 3. Mass will be at 6:30 pm. Please attend Mass as a family. We will serve pizza afterwards in the Parish Hall. Catechists will not be in charge of classes this day.
