A way to stay connected!! Each week your child (grs.1,3-6)) has a Promise, Good News or a Venture leaflet. Some of you asked for a way to share educational material. There is a family component to this series: go to www.pflaumweeklies.com, click on resources for families – there you will find Gospel at home (choose your Sunday). You will also find videos and other resources
