STCS Honors All Saints Day S aints are an important tradition to the Catholic Church. At Saint Theresa Catholic School the first grade started a new tradition last year involving saints. The tradition continues. In early October this year, each first grader chose a saint, wrote a report about that saint, and created a costume that represents the saint. It was a busy month at each saint’s house! The culminating event was on November 1st when the Catholic Church celebrates All Saint’s Day. The “saints” processed in with the altar servers and Fr. Bing. The first grade saints did the readings, the Prayers of the Faithful and made an offering during the Presentation of the Gifts. It was a fabulous day! May the tradition continue for years to come. Z Each Saint Theresa Catholic School first grader created a costume based on a saint of their choosing.
