This year our Basketball program was blessed with awesome teams! All of our levels competed and moved on through their tournaments. Our 7th/8th grade team are the Gold division champions!

Last Tuesday, the GOYA got together for a “TacoTalk.” We discussed work and if it was a virtue or a necessary evil. We talked about priorities and our liturgy being defined as “work of the people.” Aside from this, Aris posed the question “Is sand yellow?” And this conversation is still being discussed a week later! A great day with the GOYA, we look forward to our next meeting this Friday!

This Month our GOYAn’s learned about Chrismation! We learned that we receive the Holy Spirit and we have a personal pentecost. They also learned that the Chrism is made by the Patriarch once every 10 years and is distributed to all of the parishes in the world and used in every chrismation.

This past weekend, our GOYAns enjoyed their Annual Paintball Outing at Paintball Explosion in East Dundee. It was a beautiful day, filled with much fun and fellowship.

This month for our Jr./Sr. GOYA Outing, we were supposed to go ice skating. Unfortunately, the cold left us out of the rink but luckily we got to have an awesome day at church! We started the day with some lunch, then went upstairs to the gym to play bubble soccer.
