2008 OLF Christmas Pageant:  December 24th -  4:00 pm Mass

Dear Parents and Children,

We are happy to have your child/children participate in the 2008 Christmas Pageant held during the 4:00 pm Mass on Christmas Eve.  All 1st through 5th graders who are not in Mrs. McGowan’s choir are eligible. 

The registration form (listed on the bottom of the page) for participation in the Pageant must be returned to the Religious Education office no later than 3:00 pm on Friday, November 7th at which time all parts will be drawn by lottery and assigned.  You will be sent an email with the results.  In order to be fair to all, no request for a specific part will be taken, no names will be accepted after the lottery drawing, and children may not switch parts.  We ask that you discuss the part with your child prior to the first rehearsal and notify us if he/she does not want the part assigned so we may draw another name.
