HRCS History Other Links Internal		Holy Rosary Reaches Out (With Caring Hands, Sharing Hands, Helping Hands, Praying Hands, Loving Hands) “For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me.” Matthew 25: 35-36 Community service is an integral, interwoven aspect of academic, social and spiritual life at Holy Rosary Catholic School. Students participate in many community service activities individually, as a class, and school-wide, with significant family participation as well. From Pre-Kindergarten to 8th grade, students are outwardly focused, frequently including some type of community service in their class parties and holiday activities. The following is a sampling of some of the recent community service projects undertaken by students, families, faculty and staff of Holy Rosary Catholic School. Annual Thanksgiving Food Drive for St. Vincent de Paul Society Hope Bag Project for the Homeless Adopted families through Catholic Charities Annual Holy Childhood Association Lenten giving program Bi-annual medical supply drive for Guatemalan mission trip Toy drive for Catholic Charities Book drive for overseas troops and a rehabilitation hospital By caring for others outside the Holy Rosary classroom walls, students are able to do as God had instructed: “When you did this for others, you did this for Me.”
