This past week at the Diocese of Rockville Centre has been full of enriching lessons about our faith’s most inspiring role models and our nation’s government. Last Friday, schools throughout the diocese celebrated All Saints’ Day with their own unique traditions, including saint parades, presentations, Masses, and even saint bingo! This week, younger students enjoyed learning about elections with playful candidates like Lego characters, stuffed animals, and snack foods. It’s been a truly exciting week for the Diocese!
