100% of all funds raised from the redeemed pull tabs are put into the direct operations of the local Ronald McDonald House of Albany. These funds help support the health, development, and well-being of the children and families they serve by giving them a "home away from home" while receiving treatment for serious illnesses. For more information, please call 518-438-2655.

Our first Shine Your Light group of the summer was last week! Mrs. Hayden started the group with a craft, and then they taste-tested some chocolate zucchini muffins Mrs. Hayden had made. Red hand faces show they didn't like the muffins at first glance, but when they tasted them, some of the hand faces turned to green. This was used to teach that we shouldn't "judge a book by its cover." The group also toured the community garden outside of St. Ed's and had a fantastic tour guide - Stanley!
If you would like to attend a Shine Your Light group, please register at www.stedwardsny.org and join in the fun lessons of faith! Thursdays, 7/24, 7/31 & 8/7 at 1:30 PM.
Monday Night Madness will be held at St. Edward's this evening from 6-8 PM. High School Hang Out will be from 8-9:30 PM. We hope to see you there!
