A Celebration
of Freedom
LAST weekend to help STCA Green
Team recycle: Recycle old toothbrushes,
empty toothpaste & floss containers and related packaging. STCA students will repackage and send them to Terracycle to be
made into new recycled products.
The Terracycle Cup Recycling Program
also will recycle any #6 rigid plastic cups —
and STCA will earn $.02 each!
Parishioners will find a collection box on the
table at the north entrance of the church.
Thank you!
St. Therese Parish and STCA would like to
