Dear SPX Family- Grandparent’s Day was a success! It was so good to see and meet everyone. The kids loved having their Grandparents at school with them, and I be-lieve they enjoyed being at school (and recess) just as much! Thank you to the PTO for provid-ing the desserts for our guests. Next week, will wrap up the first grading period and progress reports will be going out on Thursday. In addition to next week, our first PTO meeting of the year will be on Tuesday, Sept. 11 @ 6:30 in Parish Hall. Ending next week, on Friday, Sept. 14 will be our annual swim party and the Knights of Columbus Club. (KC Club) I look forward to this event every year! It is a fun night to meet new families and enjoy time together. Fall sports have begun. Volleyball games begin this weekend. Please check the website and newsletter for the schedule and come cheer on our SPX Tigers! Again, thank you all for a great day. I do hope that all had an enjoyable time eating lunch with students and Grandparents and lasting memories were made. Have a great weekend! Putting HIS Children First, Tana Scott, Principal #BEGOLDEN

SAINT OF THE MONTH:

ST. VINCENT DE PAUL (Feast Day: September 27)

St. Vincent De Paul, was born in a town in Southwest France and was the son

of poor French peasants. Today the town is called Saint-Vincent-de-Paul,

Landes, France.

When he grew up and became famous, he loved to tell people how he had

taken care of his father's pigs. Because he was intelligent, his father sent him

to school to study under the Franciscan friars at Acqs. And after finishing his studies from the University of

Toulouse, Vincent became a priest at the age of 20.

At first, he was given an important position as the teacher of rich children, and he lived rather comfortably. But

while he was traveling by sea from one city to another, he fell into the hands of Turkish pirates who sold him as

a slave in Tunis.

Two years later after he was finally set free by one of his owners, who he converted to Christianity, he returned

to France where he served as a parish priest.

Then one day, he was called to the side of a dying peasant. In front of many people, this man declared that all

his past confessions had been bad ones.

Suddenly Father Vincent realized how badly the poor people of France needed spiritual help. When he began to

preach to them, crowds went to confession. He finally decided to start a congregation of priests to work

especially among the poor.

The charities of St. Vincent de Paul were so many that it seems impossible for one person to have begun so

much.

He took care of criminals who worked on the sailing ships

He started the Congregation of the Sisters of Charity

He opened hospitals and homes for orphans and old people

He collected large sums of money for poor areas

He sent missionaries to many countries and bought back prisoners from the Mohammedans

He is the patron saint of charities, horses, hospitals, lost articles, prisoners, volunteers, and St. Vincent de Paul

Societies.

Quotes from St. Vincent De Paul

Even though he was such a charitable man, however, he humbly admitted that he was not so by nature. "I would have

been hard, rough and ill-tempered," he said "were it not for God's grace."

"It is not sufficient for me to love God if I do not love my neighbor. I belong to God and to the poor." Vincent de Paul

died in Paris on September 27, 1660.
