Sister Naomi and Sister Sally at North Nashville Catholic Charities provide food, clothing, and other material assistance to our neighbors who have less than we do. The need for food donations is particularly great at this time.
Sister Naomi said that they do already have some canned vegetables. They really need canned meat, such as chili or tuna fish or even beefaroni. They need tomato sauce to go with the pasta they have. They need peanut butter and jelly. Any non-perishable food items would be welcome. They will take monetary donations as well. Those coming to the MARCH end of year program, please bring something on Saturday and it can be passed on to North Nashville Catholic Charities.

Park Day Revisited
Families who came for the first park day in April had so much fun, we did another trip to Two Rivers Park in Nashville, before the weather warms up too much for the kids to run around outside for so long. Highlights of this particular park day include sandcastle building and a disc golf lesson from a friendly park visitor who engaged a dozen willing listeners (including a few parents) and let everyone try tossing a frisbee or two.

MARCH End-of-Year Program
On Saturday, May 31, we will be having an end of year program to share our children's talents and accomplishments. If your children play a musical instrument, if they have memorized a poem, if they would like to put together a little skit of some kind, if they could sing a song, we would all love to see their performance. Or they may bring some artwork to display. Of course, the children's work does not have to be museum quality. The point of this event is to have fun and share some of the creative things the children have done over the course of the school year.
Dinner will be included. The hostess will make a main dish, and those of you who come can bring side dishes.
For more information, contact Karen Pagan (kpagan -- at -- catholicweb.com) or phone 746-6533.

Park Day
On a hot spring day, several families from locations as far afield as Joelton, Donelson, Nashville, and Columbia got together at Two Rivers Park for a day out playing on the playground, running around the fields and picnicking together. While the kids ran around, the moms and dads got a chance to visit, compare curricula and discuss the school year as it winds to a close.

First Sunday Brunch at Assumption
At Assumption we have a Brunch after the 11 a.m. Mass every first Sunday of the month. Various groups of Assumption people take turns donating and cooking the food. On April 6, the Brunch will be made by the homeschoolers at Assumption.
Let's get the kids in on the cooking. We'll meet on Saturday April 5 at 10:00 a.m. at Assumption. Kids of all ages are welcome. The older ones can dice tomatoes and mash avocados and cook ground beef. The younger ones can just play, in the school hall or outside in the back yard. Dads are welcome, too, because of course, many Dads can wield spoons and spatulas with expertise.
If you are unable to come and help on the 5th, please do not let that discourage you. There are two other ways in which you may participate. 1) Prepare something at home and bring it to Assumption on or before the day of the Brunch. 2) Just donate $10.00, and we'll will buy something delicious for the Brunch.
