April 2008

Dear Students,

It is hard to believe another semester will be ending in a few short weeks.  In these last hectic days, consider stopping by the Chapel for quiet prayer or attending Daily Mass.  If you need a quiet place to study, please take advantage of our many study rooms at The Catholic Center.  You always can find a quiet corner here!  We will continue to keep you in prayer during these final weeks of the semester and throughout the summer months.

Sincerely in Christ,

Father Dan White, Kim Allbee & the FOCUS Missionaries

If you have extra points on your meal card in the last days of the semester, you can go to any campus store and buy non-perishable food items and bring them to The Catholic Center.  We will have boxes in the lounge where you can put the food, and we will bring it to the food shelf.  You cannot carry points to the fall semester; any unused points will be lost.
