A great email from Mariano Press, the company that prints and laminates our tree signs!

Thank you for your continued trust and partnership with us. Through your business, you’ve helped us create 64 meals for Americans in need through our Offsetting Hunger Initiative, in which we donate a portion of our gross sales to Feeding America. To learn more about this program or share your impact, please visit our website at www.marianopress.com/offset-hunger .  Attached, you’ll also find your shareable virtual certificate.

As your dedicated printing partner, we would welcome the opportunity to provide competitive pricing on any projects you’re considering with other vendors. This includes paper printing, labels, packaging, mailings, signs, promotional items, and decorated uniforms and apparel.

We’re excited to announce that we’re expanding our Offsetting Hunger initiative through a referral program. For every referral that results in an order, we’ll donate the equivalent of 100 additional meals through Feeding America. If you know anyone seeking printing or promotional services, now is the perfect time to connect them with us. Together, we can multiply our impact and make an even bigger difference!

Your choice to partner with us for your printing needs means the world to us. If you’re satisfied with our services, we would be grateful if you would share our information with others. Every new project helps us put more meals on the tables of those in need. Let us help take projects off your colleagues’ plates while putting meals on others’.

Thank you again for your continued support!

Thanks to all of our customers we have now reached over 480,000 meals donated!

The School Advisory Council (SAC) is looking for new members. St. Matthias Parish members, who would want to contribute some of their time and expertise to help advise the Pastor and the Principal in making St. Matthias School better today, and  well prepared for the future, are welcome. The individuals could be past, or current SMS parents or grand parents, who care deeply about the elementary and middle school Catholic education. Experience in education, finance, accounting, technology, engineering, property management, healthcare, procurement, or human resources is welcome.

The council generally meets once a month (6-7 times a year), in person and/or via zoom. The principal, the vice-principal and the pastor report on the current status and challenges. The council discusses the current issues and the ways to position the school in a better place for the future. The topics like academics, marketing, enrollment, technology and grounds improvements, giving (Tuition Angels, The Annual Fund)  and others are discussed. The council member term is 3 years. As we currently have a few members close to the end of their term, we are looking to fill multiple positions.

Interested individuals can contact the current SAC chair Sue Lenczewski, myworld2@comcast.net or the school Principal Mrs. Lynch, mlynch@stmatthiasnj.org. If you feel, you would be a good contributor, please pray about it, and reach out to us, as we strive to be a diverse team of advisors (in culture and experience) who can use their time and talent to assist the school administration in making SMS the best it can be.
