From the Desk of Our Pastor
Christian Stewardship
The Christian family has been called the domestic church. The American Catholic Bishops have
emphasized the importance of the family in their letter on stewardship entitled, Stewardship: A
Disciple’s Response. The Bishops point out: “within the family, parents must teach their children the
truths of faith and pray with them; share Christian values with them in the face of pressures to
conform to the hostile values of a secularized society, and initiate them into the practice of
stewardship itself, in all its dimensions, contrary to today’s widespread consumerism and
individualism”. This may require adjusting the family’s patterns of consumption and its lifestyle,
including the use of television and the internet which sometimes preach values in conflict with the
mind of Christ. As we enter into the final days of the Lenten Season once again let us consider ways
in which we can limit our use of legitimate pleasures even television and video so we can use the time
for prayer and works of mercy.
Msgr. Charles H. Hagan

Several weeks ago, the 3rd grade students
planted trays of organic, mild microgreens, a variety of
Brassica consisting of mizuna, cabbage, kale and
kohlrabi. Microgreens are planted in long, shallow flats
with a bottom-watering system which make them very
easy for children to grow. Even more exciting is that
the time period from planting to harvest is only ten to
fourteen days.
Each pair of students planted and tended their
own flat, and this week the students spent the morning
carefully cutting and washing the microgreens. The
students were amazed at the harvest - the fourteen
flats yielded eight large bags of washed greens!
Needless to say, there was enough produce to feed the
entire class. Our 3rd grade teacher, Mrs. Poiesz,
brought in salad dressing and other veggies so that
the students could make their own fresh salads. It’s
amazing to see students who don’t normally care for
greens enjoying salads that they planted, watered and
harvested. It was truly a farm to table experience.
We’re rapidly approaching the spring planting
season. Each class has decided on the vegetables,
fruits or flowers that they’d like to start in the
ecological classroom with the goal of taking the
produce home in late May. Our 7th and 8th grade
iServe members are planting tomatoes and peppers to
harvest and donate to a food bank, and our 5th grade
teacher, Mrs. Crandall, is running an elective class in
the ecological class room with the goal of selling herb
plants to raise money for the parish Haiti mission.
We’re off to a healthy start!
God bless,
Dawn Parker
