Students at St. Robert Catholic School recently welcomed a special visitor: Bishop David Walkowiak. He visited on March 11, spending time with every classroom.

The children shared about what they're studying in school, asked questions about Bishop Walkowiak’s ministry, and learned more about our Catholic faith.

More than 400 4^th graders from Catholic schools across the Diocese of Grand Rapids gathered for the annual Songfest concert on March 5. It was the 24^th year for the program.

Deacon Dennis Rybicki directed the program, as he has every year. It was emceed by principals Cindy Thomas of St. Stephen and Kevin Varner of Our Lady of Consolation. The concert took place at West Catholic High School.

Talking with Mr. Faber, the students learned about some of the things a superintendent does.

Catholic education has been shown to encourage students’ future faith.
