Tuition Contracts for K-8 Were Mailed Last Week, Preschool and Childcare Registration Underway
Tuition contracts for next year’s K-8 students were mailed last week. Please return them with the registration fee as soon as possible so we can make plans for next year, and you can have the advantage of the discounted registration fee.
Some of our classes for 3, 4, and 5 year old preschool and/or childcare already have waiting lists forming for next school year. Register now while the classes that meet your family’s schedule still have openings.
Communal Penance Service
The Diocese of Davenport will be celebrating the Sacrament of Reconciliation through a communal penance service held at Our Lady of Victory at 6:30 p.m on March 25th. Nearly a dozen priests will be available.
Stewardship of Treasure Campaign
Joyful Living, Grateful Giving: This year’s Stewardship of Treasure renewal is underway, and families should have received a letter from Fr. Greiner. By letting us know your intentions, the parish can better plan for the future and continue to place Catholic school education at JFK and Assumption in a prioritized role. Please complete the intention envelope and place it in the collection basket, mail it to the parish office, or send it through backpack mail.
You may also want to consider registering for on-line giving. This option can be found on the parish website by clicking on the “E-Giving” button, and this feature allows you to donate with whatever amount or frequency you desire. Lynn and I use this feature, and it was handy this past weekend when we attended Mass with extended family members elsewhere this weekend. OLV still receives our regular donation.
