Each year our 7th grade class works with Sheila King (coordinator) and the Sisters of Mercy to put together Easter backpacks. This is our 6th Annual Field trip to Mercy Circle to assist in our Lenten Service Project. The Easter backpacks are given to families from Margaret's Village. Margaret Village provides transitional housing for homeless women, children, and families. Alderman O'Shea stopped by to give a special thanks and some words of encouragement to the students. Check out the News on Channel 2, 5, and 7 tonight/tomorrow night as well as the Beverly Review, Daily Southtown, the Patch, and Chicago Catholic in coming days to learn more about the day! So proud of our Wildcats putting their faith into action!
