Today was the All Saints Parade for the 1st grade at John Parker's school. Each of the children chose a saint, wrote a report about them and came to school in full costume. John Parker was St. Hubert--patron saint of hunters and trappers. They "paraded" in to Prayer and Pledge this morning while the rest of the students sang, "When the Saints Come Marching In". After that, they had Mass for the 1st and 2nd graders. Fr. Mike did such a good job with them--and let most of them stand up and tell who they were and a little about their particular saint. They were all so cute and sweet. It brought tears to my eyes to see them so happy to talk and sing about their faith.
