ALL SAINTS’ DAY AND SAINTS AWARD CEREMONY

NOVEMBER 1

All Saints’ Day is a Christian celebration of all the saints of the church, whether they are known or unknown. At School, we hold a special Eucharist service and Saints Award Ceremony, honoring one or more members of our community who have tirelessly given of themselves to uphold our cherished values and traditions while propelling us toward elevated excellence. This year, we honored Dr. Evelyn and Rick Merrill. Evelyn and Rick have served in many capacities at our School including volunteer leadership positions and as President of the Board of Trustees. The Saints Award is the highest accolade in our Community.

Every year, the All Saints’ Fund cabinet of volunteers holds a text-a-thon on All Saints’ Day of Giving to ask parents, grandparents, alumni and parents of alumni to support the All Saints’ Fund. This year, ASF Chairs Lauren Thomas Bredthauer ’01 and Lissa Thomas Harrison ’02, and their cabinet secured 269 gifts, more than $218,000, in 24 hours. Congratulations to the Class of 2029 for winning the Saints Circle Giving Challenge for the fourth year in a row.
