Registration is already open for the sacramental preparation programs that begin in September: for children and adults who haven’t received Baptism, First Communion, or Confirmation. Registration sheets for kids are in the back of church by the door; or you can sign up at the office or on sapbronx.com. One change for this year: the kids in grades 1-4, the “Treasure Hunters” group, will meet here on Wednesday evenings, from 5:30—7:00 PM.

To decorate the church as well as possible, we invite everyone to bring flowers or flower arrangements—either white or yellow or gold—to the office, by Thursday, June 8, at the latest.
