As noted last week, Mrs. Seals' barn and greenhouse recently went up in flames. They lost a lot of stuff.
Members of the local farming community and QP community have come through big in helping her restock.
She has way more info on Facebook (Farmhouse Blooms) if you want to know details on the whole situation.
Her sister convinced her to make a list of stuff that people might just have sitting around the garage, shed, etc.
If there is anything you would like Mrs. Seals to have, you can send it to school or drop it off and we will make sure it gets to her.
Dear Families,
This past Tuesday, we celebrated the Epiphany, which recalls the visit of the magi to Bethlehem. In this moment, the truth of Jesus as the Messiah FOR ALL was made manifest. In this same spirit, we challenged the students to take the love of Jesus out to every kind of person they encounter. This is the essence of seeing Christ in self and other.
All week long, we also talked about Mary's famous command to the servants at the wedding at Cana. "Do what He tells you," she said.
This command is for us as well.
It is an echo of the Great Commission: Go forth and baptize all nations.
It is an echo of the Great Commandment: Love God and love your neighbor.
We left the following questions for later conversation:
1) How do we know what God is telling us?
2) How do we know what the love of God looks like?

The Ohio Legislature recently created a program called Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGO).
What does this mean for you?
It means can you can receive an Ohio income tax credit up to $750 per individual or $1,500 per joint Ohio tax return.
How?

When you make your donation, remember to designate QUEEN OF PEACE SCHOOL.
By law, the donations we collect through the SGO program must be used for tuition assistance. You might think that in the era of EdChoice there would be no need for this. Yet there is!
