SAS 8th graders held their final Class Mass last Thursday, Oct. 3, with family members joining them for worship and lunch. Yesterday, the 3rd grade visited the Colorado County Fairgrounds for Ag in the Classroom hosted by the Columbus FFA.
Last Friday, Father James Dvorak celebrated the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi by blessing animals brought to the SAS playground. In blessing the animals, we recognize the value of all creatures made by God and how their relationship with humans adds value to their lives and ours. SAS families brought pets of all shapes and sizes for this special dedication to those beloved critters that are part of our families!
