We spend all year at St. Mary's School learning about the saints and talking about how we can follow their examples living lives of love for Christ and others. We learn to ask them to intercede to the Lord for us. But on All Saints Day we CELEBRATE their lives! We begin with Mass during which the first graders dress as a favorite saint and share facts about the saints with the congregation. Then grades K-5 all celebrate together with a party. Students go from classroom to classroom playing saint-themed games and winning fun prizes. Pictured is the Saint Walk game: students walk around a circle of saint pictures to music, and when the music stops one saint is chosen. Students name the saint by listening to clues about the saint, then the person standing by that saint wins a cupcake!
