Dear Lourdes Families, Happy Monday! As mentioned last week, in keeping with our theme of "evangelization" this school year, we will be focusing on a bible verse every week. This week, after the morning prayer and pledge, students and staff will reflect upon: Toward the rising and the setting of the sun people may know that there is none besides me. I am the Lord, there is no other. (Isaiah 45:6) Don't forget that you can still shop our online book fair all this week, up until October 18th. Visit https://www.scholastic.com/bf/lourdescatholicschool to get started! It is not too late for your opinion to be heard. What should the future of the Bettendorf Catholic Church look like? Various forms of collaboration are being considered for the Catholic Church of Bettendorf, including Lourdes Catholic School. Visit https://lourdescatholic.org/church/vision/ to find out more and take the 5-minute Vision Survey. Your ideas matter. I am hoping you enjoy surveys, because here is one more reminder. Please consider taking a moment this weekend to let us know how we are doing this school year with this short survey: https://forms.gle/QFCdtGsw2g2tLoKD8. Thank you to the 52 people who responded so far. I will be closing the survey in a day or two. Trunk or Treat is a fun tradition for the whole family at Lourdes that we won't be able to have this year due to the Covid-19 pandemic restrictions. However, it is also is one of the biggest fundraisers for the 7th & 8th Grade Washington DC trip. We are hopeful that the June 2021 trip will be able to occur as planned, so we want to attempt to be creative and have a fundraiser that will replace the $1800 or so that we were expecting to make from the 2020 Trunk or Treat. This fundraiser has always been a way to make sure that all 7th and 8th graders are able to go on the trip, by lowering the cost of the trip for families. With this in mind, watch for information to come home this week for a Haunted Halloween Driving Tour to occur Friday, October 30th, 6-8 PM! Here are some events to remember this week: Monday, Oct.12 9:00 AM Mass – Mrs. Mesick’s homeroom School Pictures ~ Mrs. Robinson's 3 day PS and afternoon PreK, Mrs. Gustafson, Mrs. McIntosh, 3rd -5th grades, and 8th grade Tuesday, Oct.13 9:00 AM Mass – Mrs. Behnke’s homeroom School Pictures ~ Mrs. Robinson's 2 day PS, Kindergarten - 2nd grades, 6th-7th grade Wednesday, Oct.14 9:00 AM Mass – 5th-8th Group A (Group B livestream) 2:30 PM K-8 Early Dismissal Thursday, Oct.15 9:00 AM Mass – Mr. Jost’s homeroom Friday, Oct.16 9:00 AM Mass – Mrs. Holmes’ homeroom 1:00PM K-8 Flu Shot Clinic Saturday, Oct.17 4:30PM Saint John Vianney Mass 5:00 PM Our Lady of Lourdes Mass Sunday, Oct.18 8:00 AM Our Lady of Lourdes Mass 8:30 AM St. John Vianney Mass 10:30 AM Our Lady of Lourdes Mass 11:00 AM St. John Vianney Mass 5:00 PM Our Lady of Lourdes Mass Upcoming Events (Save-the-Dates): October 20-22, K-8 Parent/Teacher Conferences October 23 No School Have a faith-filled week!
