Blue Letter 03.21.14

Dear SAA Families,
A couple of important notes, in addition to the Blue Letter:

Regarding the School Play -  [Reading this, knowing the story of St. Thomas More and seeing the photo attached of the LOVELY costumes, who would NOT want to come tomorrow night???]

Overheard today -- the play Director talking to the Asst. Superintendent of the Archdiocese, and in the teachers’ lounge: “This cast is remarkable.  It is the best group I have ever worked with.  They may have had the least experience of any cast, but there has never been a group so dedicated, so focused, as these student actors. It is thrilling to be a part of it.  I am so very proud to be able to work with them.” This is high praise from one who has directed so many plays over the last 30 years!

Two announcements regarding Medieval Day - MASS at 8:30 AM Tuesday Morning---make sure to eat early enough to make the 1 hour fast before holy communion. Please watch for an email request to the upper school families regarding food for the Medieval Day on Tuesday, March 25th.  Mrs. Grayson The SignUpGenius email pertains to UPPER Campus families only!  (I heard that sigh of relief, Lower Campus Moms!)
LOWER SCHOOL STUDENTS – K-3 will come to the upper school for the Grand Parade and afternoon challenges.  The knights and dames of Santa Paula will assist in the scoring of all the challenge points.  [Morning will be a normal day at lower school campus.  Pick-up will be from Upper School on Wells Road at 2:30.]

Additionally - Prayer - I was reminded this morning about the horrible struggles for religious freedom going on around the world.  We are battling some in the US, but it takes on the shape of full-scale civil wars in some countries around the world, RIGHT NOW.  Great persecution and desecration's are happening in the Christian country of Venezuela, similar horrors can be found in the Middle East and Africa.  Let us to remember to pray for persecuted Christians around the world, as we pray for TRUE world peace in all the right ways!
