The event, sponsored by the Mission Office of the Archdiocese and attended by many Archdiocesan students – the greatest since the event began, filling the Cathedral – was videotaped for local television news. Msgr. Terry Fleming was the main celebrant and Cardinal Roger Mahony was in attendance. The Mass was meant to increase awareness among our students of the hunger and poverty affecting other young persons in the world. This year, our students continue to make small sacrifices to contribute to the ongoing HCA collection. They are able to see how their contributions help other young persons at the web site www.hcakids.org. St. Timothy School Website! Visit us at sttimothy.org .

How to Understand Your Kids’ Text Messages If you’ve read your child’s text messages, you might think he or she has learned a second language. Texting has replaced email for most young people today. And, like any form of communication, parents have a responsibility to make sure that their children use texting as safely as possible. As a parent or guardian, take time to learn some of the texting lingo. Also, be alert that some predators use texting to send sexually explicit messages to unsuspecting young people. A helpful tutorial for parents is located at www.mahalo.com Type: “ How to understand your kids’ text messages” in the search box. For particular help, you may call Assistance Ministry at (213) 637-7650.
