Welcome the Pilgrim Virgin Statue Home

Posted on by Janis DeVore

One of the beautiful traditions of our school is the Pilgrim Virgin Statue Program whereby families are invited to host one of two statues of Our Lady of Fatima in their home for one week. While the statue is in the home, families are encouraged to pray together part of or the entire Rosary for the intentions of our school as well as their own private intentions. The presence of the Pilgrim Virgin Statue is certain to increase your devotion to Mary and to bring you and your family closer to her Son.

Families who wish to participate in this program may sign up on Track It Forward. (https://www.trackitforward.com/site/935959/event/983843)

Pick up time for the Statues at the front office is before 2:30 PM on Friday (unless otherwise noted) with a return time of before 9:00 AM the following Friday. Please be sure to sign in and out for the Statue in the Visitor Binder at the front desk.

Should you have any questions or would like more information, please contact the Pilgrim Virgin Statue Rotation Coordinator, Mrs. Fuzzy Reynolds or call (703-368-4400).

Bread of Life Food Drive Results

Posted on by Janis DeVore

Thank you to everyone who contributed so generously to All Saints Catholic School’s 2nd Annual Bread of Life Food Drive, March 30 – April 8. At the conclusion of the drive, we donated over 3,000 pounds of food to the St. Lucy Project and All Saints’ Bethany Food Pantry. Your contributions of fresh fruits and vegetables and non-perishable food items helped individuals and families throughout Prince William County who are struggling with food insecurity.

As noted by Mr. Conroy in the April 13 issue of The Sentinel, “We are so proud of our students for their enthusiastic support of this outreach, one that will directly benefit families who experience food insecurity in our region. I wish to thank Mrs. DeBruyne, Mrs. Bill, and Mrs. DeVore, as well as the students of the National Junior Honor Society, for coordinating the many details related to this program.”

Congratulations to the following classes that donated the greatest amount of food items during the collection.

  • 1st Place (Chick-fil-A Lunch) – 4A (542 Donations)
  • 2nd Place (Dress Down Day) – 1A (495 Donations)
  • 3rd Place (Extra Recess) – K2 (470 Donations)

Two Alumni Serving as FOCUS Missionaries

Posted on by Janis DeVore

Two All Saints Catholic School Alumni and long-time parishioners McKenna DeBruyne and Allison Rice are excited to share an opportunity to join them in Catholic evangelization through an organization called FOCUS. McKenna and Allison have dedicated two years of their lives to being Catholic FOCUS missionaries at the University of Colorado, Mines and the University of Maine.

What is FOCUS?
FOCUS stands for the Fellowship of Catholic University Students and is the largest Catholic college outreach program reaching out to students on over 180 different college campuses. The 800 FOCUS missionaries are trained in outreach and evangelization to bring Christ into a student’s world. Their job occurs on campus – in the gym, the cafeteria and coffee shops, at athletic and Greek events – meeting students where they are. From there, they engage them in friendship and invite them into a relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church. They mentor students on how to incorporate Jesus’ teachings into everyday life.

Studies show that those who practice their faith through college are significantly more likely to remain active after graduating. The message of FOCUS is a message of hope: not only do missionaries encounter lost students and invite them back to faith, but these students in turn reach out to their peers, their brothers and sisters, their parents and grandparents. Lives are being changed and souls are being saved!

How Can You Support our Alumni Missionaries?
As missionaries, McKenna and Allison are responsible for fundraising 100% of their mission budget with the help individuals like you. If you are interested in learning more about FOCUS and their mission or want to join McKenna and Allison’s financial support team, please complete the form below and McKenna and Allison will be in contact with you.

Thank you for your generosity and desire to join them in mission to build up leaders, change the world for Christ, and save souls!

Our Eagle Gets a Name!

Posted on by Janis DeVore

Beginning last spring, there was a call to name the All Saints Eagle mascot.  After many votes, the tallies have been counted and our Eagle has a name!

Without further ado, we introduce the All Saints Eagle, Cuthbert! Our eagle’s namesake is Saint Cuthbert who was known for his successful effort to protect birds in his native Northumbria, now Scotland. His feast day is September 4th, so we will make sure to plan special activities around that day for our own Cuthbert.

 

St. Cuthbert also is often depicted with the symbol of an Eagle in artwork.  During this time of Covid-19, it is interesting that one of St. Cuthbert’s patronages is against epidemics.
