DO YOU WANT THE BEST FOR YOUR CHILD? 

In some Latin American countries a Catholic school education is only for the rich but the Bishops
of the United States have launched a campaign to get 1 million Latino children in  Catholic Schools
so they can get the best in reading, writing, arithmetic and science but also the
best discipline, values, sacraments, religion and a good relationship with Christ.

 Nativity members who come to Mass, use envelopes and help in the parish can give a
child the best education, worth $5,000.00, for just $15.00 per week, $780.00 per year.
There is even a family rate. Each parish really wants to get Latino students so your child will be
welcomed with open arms and hearts. Each school has high quality teachers who can work with any child,
even those that might need a little extra help at first.

 Holy Spirit – 1800 S. Lodge Ave. 477-9082
A small school with 168 students on the southeast side with Marian Educational Outreach special education
classes and a priest, Fr. Burns, who speaks fluent Spanish. They already have several Latino children
attending and doing well.  
 

St. Theresa – 600 Herndon Dr. 423-1763
A small school with 107 students on the north side with a brand new program that offers year round
school with more days for your child to learn. They have already had several Latino families.  

Christ the King – 3010 E. Chandler, 476-1792
A school with 207 students on the east side, about 15 blocks from Nativity, with quality teachers.
They have several Latino children doing well there. Pilar’s grandchildren go there.  

Holy Rosary -  1301 S. Green River, 477-2271
A large school with 431 students on the south east side, about 20 blocks from Nativity.
They have had many Latino children attending and offer a high quality education, sports and religion.  

If you want the best for your child next fall see Abraham or Pilar after Mass or
call the Latino office at 476-7704 to register or get more information. You can also call the principal for a visit.

CL Evansville (Communion and Liberation) is a Young Adult Group that
meets weekly every Monday Night at 6:30 PM.  This
group comes together for community, spiritual enhancement and service.
In CL -We learn to perceive the sense of the Mystery, upon which our
life depends, and to live the Catholic faith through a companionship
within everyday life. Community life is built through the "School of
Community", a weekly meeting with study and discussion about a text.
The text communicates the experience of Father Giussani's charism in a
systematic form that helps us judge our lives and the life of the Church
and of the world. Please contact Phil Zenthoefer - 812-305-5486.
