We give You thanks most of all for the gift of Your Son, Jesus. Please bless the food we eat, all who are gathered today to share it, and all our loved ones who can't be with us today. We ask this as we ask all things, through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Garces Memorial High School mourns the recent passing of our beloved Vince Fanucchi. 

Mr. Fanucchi graduated from Garces in 1967 and began teaching and coaching on campus in 1974. 

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon our brother Vince.

God of peace, we pray that you bless all those who have served their country through service in the armed forces. Grant healing to those veterans who have been wounded, be it in body, mind or soul. We pray especially for those who come home to lives of suffering and loneliness.

Today is a Holy Day of Obligation to honor all saints, known and unknown. Mass attendance is expected for all who are able. Let us pray together in commemorating the special souls of all those who achieved heroic Christian sanctity in their life.

The sophomore class returned to campus yesterday after an overnight retreat at Three Rivers.
The students stayed at Santa Teresita Youth Center. The separation of the boys and girls on the retreat were full of fun prayer and fellowship.

A wonderful way to kick off the school year. And what a wonderful surprise by the Bishop to bless our new principal, Ms. Leon at the end of Mass.
