Two students from our parish placed first in the state of Pennsylvania for the Keep Christ in Christmas poster contest of 2024, which is organized internationally by the Knights of Columbus, and here at our parish by the Mater Dei Council of the Knights of Columbus. Congratulations to our local council for organizing this wonderful event each year, giving our students the opportunity to improve and test their talents.
