1.  The Confirmation Ceremonies on Friday evening (Father Babowith) and 
       Saturday at 10 A.M. and 2 P.M. (Bishop Deliman) were inspirational,
       reverent, and meaningful for our soon-to-be graduates, who conducted
       themselves admirably.  We appreciate the support of their parents,
       guardians, and sponsors and commend Team OLC (Father Kirk, Deacons
       Bell & Teson, School/Rectory staffs, Choir, Altar Servers, & Ushers) for
       facilitating all ceremonies for Bishop Deliman and Father Babowitch. They 
       both delivered the spiritual "goods" necessary for our students to utilize
       and enrich their souls for the years ahead.  
  2.  The Presentation Mass at Noon yesterday for our Second Grade
       Communion Class (Spring) was very well-attended and also inspirational
       and meaningful. The parents/guardians of 2nd Graders & many with their
       siblings, & well-behaved wee ones, were also in attendance. Team OLC
       was up to speed and we appreciate the parishioners who gave up their
       seats and took refuge in the choir loft.  Father Babowitch, ever up-beat,
       commented that "Now we know what Christmas will look like!"  Once
       again, vigilance prevented any eager 2nd Graders from receiving their First
       Holy Communion at this time. (The few attempts were gently thwarted...)
  3.  Grades 7 & 2 may order nuggets/fries ($3) tomorrow for their lunches on
       Tuesday.
  4.  Please pray for the repose of the soul of the cousin of Mrs. McKee's (8C)
       husband, Dennis, who passed away last week.
