ANOTHER GREAT WEEK OF VBS AT ST. NICK'S Thank you to all the volunteers who helped out at Vacation Bible School last week. It was a fun-filled week of learning how to be kind to our neighbors and give back to our community. The children learned "Love One Another," a beautiful anthem that they will sing as our Offertory this Sunday.

To all of the children participating in this fundraiser..Keep up the good work!
