Back to School

08-16-2021Weekly Flocknote MessageFr. James Aboyi, V.C.

I was so glad to welcome back all of our St. John Bosco students and school community to campus Wednesday of last week. Watching the students arrive on the first day of school and walk on the Red Carpet through the main gate was very special. Later in the day, the entire school processed from the campus to the church with the Blessed Sacrament and celebrated the first Mass of the school year at St. Benedict. All of this was so beautiful to behold.

On Saturday, August 14 at 7 pm, we kicked off this school year with a Back-to-School Outdoor BBQ dinner. The BBQ is part of a series of events marking the 20th anniversary of our SJB school. This event was jointly planned by the PTO, Dad’s Club, Knights of Columbus, St. Benedict Event Ministry and the 20th Anniversary Committee. It was a fun night with over 400 attendees from our St. John Bosco and St. Benedict community.

Memorial Mass for Fr. Bob Binta

Join us for our annual Memorial Mass for our beloved Fr. Bob Binta on Friday, August 20 at 7 pm in the church, with a Rosary being said at 6:30 pm. Fr. Bob was our Pastor for five years beginning July 2013. Later he was diagnosed with cancer and passed away peacefully on August 20, 2018. Each year we remember him with a special Mass. Please join us! This Memorial will also be live-streamed on our YouTube page.

Have a wonderful weekend and remain blessed.

Fr. James Aboyi, VC
Pastor
