January 11, 2021Miss Jessica Kline, our Religion teacher, has had some exciting happenings in her life over the past few weeks. On Christmas Eve, her boyfriend proposed to her in front of Jesus in her home-parish church, Saint Nicholas, in Suman, Indiana! They will be getting married there in October 2021. Please keep Trent and Jessica in your prayers!
