A Prayer of Thanksgiving
Dear Father,
We humbly come before you with grateful hearts, Praising You with all our being, For we know that every good and perfect gift come from YOU– the one who never changes. We recognize those good things, both large and small, with which you’ve blessed us. We recognize our for-getfulness in giving than each and ever day. Forgive us in our humanity, Lord. May we learn to thank you for the good; and may be trust the evil to be made good by you. For you alone are worthy of our praise and thanksgiving. Amen
I hope all of IHM Families has a wonderful Thanks-
giving. Thank you for your support of IHM and Thank You
for being apart of our school family.
Give it Your Best!
Mr. Lowry

IHM Shop with Scrip Program
Are you getting ready to shop for the holidays? You should take advantage
of our Shop with Scrip program! The last day to place an order for Christmas is
Sunday, December 15, 2019, for pick up on either Thursday, December 19
or Sunday, December 22, 2019.
IHM’s Shop with Scrip program is a wonderful way to offset tuition payments!
Scrip is your first line of financial aid available through Immaculate Heart of
Mary School. Through the Scrip program, you can purchase gift cards for rou-
tine expenses. Through the rebates earned through the Shop with Scrip pro-
gram, credits are accumulated through the end of April each year and then ap-
plied to the next year’s tuition.
For 8th Grade Families, you can apply your Scrip credit earned to your high
school tuition! This fundraising program allows our families to shop where you
always shop, buy what you always buy, and not spend one penny more than you
already spend!! Your regular shopping habits can turn your hard earned dollars
into a tuition credit.
The Shop with Scrip Program offers gift cards for over 750 retailers, including
department and specialty stores, supermarkets including Acme, Shop Rite, Giant
and Weis, gas stations, hotels, restaurants, and universal Discover cards. The
discounts vary from retailer to retailer. You can even use Kohl’s gift cards to
pay your Kohl’s credit card bill! For retailers offering a 4% or less discount,
families will have the whole rebate credited to tuition. For retailers offering a
5% or higher discount, the rebate is divided in half, between your tuition and
Immaculate Heart of Mary Church.

You can also pre-order all of your Supermarket Scrip. Acme, Shop Rite, Giant

on Thursdays for those last minute needs.
In order to place your order, simply send an email to [email protected] by
Sunday evening at 8:00 pm. The email must contain your family name, the stores
you wish to order, and the amounts.
Once your order is submitted via email on Sunday evening, Scrip is available for
pick upon Thursday evenings from 7:00pm to 8:00pm in FSH (September

evenings, Shop Rite and Acme gift cards are available, in addition to a small sam-
pling of merchant/restaurant gift cards for direct sale for those unexpected
needs. On Sundays, only pick-ups are available.
If you apply for financial aid through the Archdiocese, you may receive addi-
tional money as a result of your Scrip purchase.
We are also in need of Scrip sellers on Sunday mornings. If you would like to
volunteer your time, please let us know.
Please direct all Scrip questions to: [email protected].

Wow, what an awesome weekend! Thank you so much to everyone who came
out the Christmas Bazaar! It was a really great event. There are so many
people to thank that we cannot possibly list them here individually. It takes so
many hands to make this event work. We had a dedicated bazaar committee of
17 people, along with 65+ volunteers (parents and staff) who handled every-
thing from set-up to clean-up. Any students who volunteered and need service
credit hours forms or something else, please email homeand-
[email protected] and we will get those completed. We cannot forget our
homeroom parents who planned and executed our outstanding classroom raffle
baskets. Please be sure to check out our list of raffle donors. These busi-
nesses all donated to our school and our kids. Please be sure to thank them.
We also want to thank all the parents who donated their bottle of cheer or
baked goods. We will provide more details around the ice cream day in the
next newsletter. If you did not sign the form when you dropped off your bot-
tle of cheer or baked good, please email [email protected] to
let us know. We plan to have an alternative to ice cream bars available for
students who don’t eat ice cream.
Starting December 1st, the Home and School Board will be selling tickets for our
Scratch and Win fundraiser. You could win $300 worth of holiday lottery tick-
ets! The drawing will take place on December 20th. A flyer with more details on
how to purchase tickets is attached following the newsletter.
The Home and School Board and our families wish you and your family a
blessed and delightful Thanksgiving. May your hearts full and your bellies
satisfied.

This week, we wanted to share some suggestions on what to do with all those
leftovers. “The Campbell’s Soup Turkey Divan was a post Thanksgiving tradition
in my house as a kid,'' said Alison.

three cheese, turkey, cranberry and sage quesadillas look so yummy.
