1.  Students in Grades Pre-K through 8 received ashes very respectfully this
      morning and our wee ones were quite taken with the experience and for the
      most part " in the moment." (We do let them know the ashes are not hot.)
      Ashes will still be distributed after the 7 P.M. Mass tonight.  A reminder 
      that the hot lunches during the Fridays of Lent will be pizza.  Also those   
      Fridays will be "Donation-Dress-Down-Days" (any amount) for Catholic
      Charities locally. "Operation Rice Bowl" is a separate worthy activity of
      Catholic Relief Services around the world and is also in-play during Lent
      each year.
  2.  Grades Pre-K & K may order pizza ($1.50) tomorrow for their lunches on
       Friday.
  3.  Snack orders for next week: 5 days.
  4.  Ryan's Band has practice after school today. Tomorrow they will
       attend an Open Rehearsal of the Philadelphia Orchestra at the Kimmel
       Center.  We pray they have a safe & enriching experience.
  5.  Please pray for the soul of Kayla Smith's (6B) uncle Richie who passed
       away last night.
