Warm and joyful Christmas greetings from your first alma mater! I hope this message of Christmas cheer will bring back wonderful memories of the gifts of love and life you received here at Holy Family School. Since "coming home" to be pastor of the parish, one of the gifts I have received has been the meeting of so many alumni of our school and sharing warm laughter and precious memories of our years in the well worn halls of Holy Family. It is a gift I hope I can share with you and many others in the not too distant future.

We have begun to form an alumni mailing list with the hope of sending along to you some of the good news of our continuing work here at Holy Family. While we are a little behind other schools in this regard, we hope you will enjoy our missives to you and that you will be able to share in our alumni efforts. We envision an informal alumni association that will enable all of our alum to continue savoring the spirit of Holy Family which is part of our souls. We hope to mail newsletters, facilitate reunions, and maintain contact with friends from years ago and to celebrate what God's Grace has done for us.

In the New Year, may you and those closest to you enjoy the blessings of Peace and Happiness. Please be alert for some news from us as we move ahead with this exciting alumni effort. Please keep this effort in your prayers and be assured of prayerful remembrances each time we celibrate the Eucharist with our current students.
