• A Special Thanks to the OLG School Children from Hearts for Haiti - Our Lady of the Greenwood School held Penny Wars during Catholic Schools Week in late January to raise funds for OLG Hearts for Haiti, St. Vincent DePaul, and the OLG Food Pantry. The students raised over $5100, total, with each Ministry receiving $1,722.67 from the collection!! What a wonderful example of stewardship and helping those in need. Thank you to the children and their parents, and to the school teachers and administration. We appreciate you!
• Three Things Thursday is Thursday, February 27th. Students may come to school out of uniform this day (while adhering to the guidelines in the school handbook) in exchange for a donation to OLG’s St. Vincent de Paul ministry. SVDP is low on funds for assistance now due to increased need and is grateful for any donations.
