🎉 The SFA Parish Picnic is Almost Here… and It Takes a Village!
We still need a little help to bring it all together!
🙋♂️We’re low on volunteers to help during the evening of the picnic—especially to work the inflatables and games. Just one hour of your time would make a big difference! Have a high schooler looking for service hours? This is a fun and easy way to earn them! Here's the link to sign up ➡️https://tinyurl.com/PicnicVolunteer2025
🍰 We’re also in need of baked goods for the Pumpkin Lane Cake Walk—cookies, cupcakes, brownies, or any fall-themed treats are welcome. Drop-off at the school office or parish center anytime this week!
Don't Forget 🎟️Presale Pickup is TONIGHT! Stop by the north lot anytime between 4–7 PM to pick up your presale items.
Thank you for your support—we couldn’t do it without this amazing community!



📅 Reminder: No School This Thursday & Friday!
As noted on the school calendar, there will be no school on Thursday or Friday this week due to Parish Picnic setup.
🎉 Parish Parade – Saturday Morning
Be sure to arrive by 9:15 AM on Saturday in the SFA Courtyard for prayer and the opening ceremony, before we head out on the Parish Parade route. It’s a great way to kick off our Parish Picnic weekend—don’t miss it!
