PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY by ST. IGNATIUS
Lord, teach me to be generous. Teach me to serve you as you deserve. To give and not to count the cost, To fight and not to heed
the wounds, To toil and not to seek for rest, To labor and not to seek reward, Save that of knowing that I do your will. AMEN

Dear Parishioners of Most Holy

Estimados Feligreses de Santísima
Trinidad,
I know from hearing your stories that
many of you are renters. Are you
worried about your rent going up or
being evicted? Have you ever been
threatened by your landlord because of
your immigration status or exploited
you in any way? Do adults in your
home work more than one job to pay
the rent?
He sabido escuchando sus historias que
muchos de ustedes rentan sus
viviendas. Esta usted preocupado
porque su renta subirá, o ser
desalojado? Ha sido amenazado por el
propietario por su estado migratorio o

Adultos en su casa trabajan más de un
trabajo para pagar la renta?
Come and learn about your rights as a
renter and how to organize for change!
Speak with lawyers and experts who
can answer your questions.

Most Holy Trinity Preschool
Most Holy Trinity Preschool is excited to announce the formation of
an Afternoon Preschool Program. The afternoon program is offered
from 1:30pm to 5:30pm. Each of our programs accepts children
from 3 years of age up to entry into First Grade.
Most Holy Trinity Principal’s
Letter to the Parish
At Most Holy Trinity Preschool, we help children learn about the
alphabet, numbers, pre-reading, early math & science and our
Catholic faith & traditions. Our teachers guide young children to
develop the social skills that will lead to success in Kindergarten and
Elementary School. Our goal is to encourage a lifelong love of
learning by establishing a strong foundation of basic concepts and
increasing each child's confidence in building positive relationships
with teachers and peers.
In expressing this hope, I likewise pray that each individual member of the
faithful and every Church community will undertake a fruitful Lenten
journey. I ask all of you to pray for me.
Pope Francis

Carla Oliveira, our third grade teacher is the Curriculum Coordinator for Most
Holy Trinity School. As our Curriculum Coordinator, Ms. Oliveira informs
teachers of changes in the curriculum, standards, and testing in the Diocese and
the Drexel School Initiative. She meets monthly with other Curriculum
Coordinators in the Diocese to review curriculum and materials that are under
consideration for adoption in the classroom.
The full day and morning program are currently full but we do have
space for your child in our afternoon program. Our waiting list is
always open and we are accepting applications for next school year
