Hey Mac, it's Jhztyn from Pinoy Culture Club! We wanted to let you know that we'll be having a meeting today in Room 103 at lunch. Today will be the very first day of the PCC initiative we're calling Tagalog 101. A defining goal that we, at Pinoy Culture Club, have is to promote Filipino culture. There are many ways to do this but what better way to start then to learn some of the basics of one of the many languages spoken across the archipelago. So, if you want to impress your Filipino friends or maybe even learn a pick up line or two, come stop by at lunch to share a laugh, learn something, or simply be a part of a proud community. Also don't worry if you can't make lunch times, Tagalog 101 is a long term initiative that we plan to hold alongside the other PLT ideas we have planned so that we can leave lunch as a time where we can discuss other topics. We hope to see you there!   

Congratulations to the Sr Boys Basketball team on their win over Dr Anne Anderson last night in a back and forth battle, winning 79-77! Thank-you to everyone who came out to support our seniors!

Speaking of supporting, purchase your DAA tournament t-shirt today in the atrium at lunch! Wear it on Friday with the rest of the school for tournament Friday!

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit (+). Amen. 

Let us pray: Loving Father, you sent your Son into the world to redeem us by his Cross and Resurrection. Send your Spirit upon us today to make us stewards of your gifts and witnesses of your Son, Jesus Christ, in our schools and in our world. 

We were created in your image and likeness; each of us a precious gift. Through the intercession of our Most Blessed Mother, Mary, the Mother of God, we ask you to protect and guide our students and staff; caring and watching over us at all times. 

Come live in our hearts and strengthen us to love and serve you. Let us glorify your name, being kind and generous to everyone we meet. With Christ as our model and our teacher, we celebrate and witness our faith, learning together, working together, and praying together in answering the call to a faith-filled life of service. 

We pray this through your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen. 

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit (+).
