On Wednesday, 2/9, the Father Ryan community gathered for an all-school Ash Wednesday prayer service. After readings and the distribution of ashes, Student Council President B Adbtahi announced that this year's Lenten project would again be a carnival to raise money for our sister school in Haiti. Also, boxes are going to be placed in each classroom for students to fill with supplies for troops in Iraq.
