Welcome Father Peter! SMS students created a banner that they placed inside the sun-room at the priest's residence Friday to surprise him on his arrival to St. Mary's. Our students look forward to getting to know Father Peter (and his dog, Lucy), & allowing him to help us grow in our faith & love for Jesus. Learn more about Rev. Peter Bassey here: https://tinyurl.com/dmpekswp
