Dear Mr. Ciani:

Allow me to take this opportunity to express my thanks for your kindness to me during my visit to St. Pancras School during Catholic Schools Week. Your warm welcome and thoughtful gifts were truly appreciated.

It was a pleasure to spend time with the faculty, staff, and especially the children. I am so impressed by the many talents of the young people of our diocese. They are always an inspiration to me and a great source of pride.

Please be assured that you and all at St. Pancras School will be remembered in a special way in my daily prayers and in the celebration of the Eucharist.

With every best wish, I am
Sincerely in Christ,

SAINT PANCRAS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL ACCREDITATION 

The Middle States Commissions on Elementary and Secondary Schools are pleased to announce that St. Pancras School has been awarded accreditation by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. The award was announced by Dr. Thomas L. Seidenberger, Chair of the Commission on Elementary Schools and Superintendent of the East Penn School District (Emmaus, PA), following the Commissions’ April, 2011 meetings.  St. Pancras School was one of approximately 200 schools so honored by the two Commissions. 

MSCESS accreditation signifies the educational community of St. Pancras School has engaged in a rigorous process of developing self-knowledge; has hosted an evaluation team of independently-appointed educators; and has created an on-going Strategic Plan to move school improvement forward. This ten month process was governed by a Steering Committee, chaired by Philip J. Ciani, Principal, Maria Perez and Walter Stark. The process involved many elements of the St. Pancras community, including faculty, parents, and students.

Accreditation also signifies that St. Pancras School has met the Middle States Standards for a quality school. These Standards reflect current research and best practices from throughout the education profession. During the term of accreditation the school community will engage in a Commission-directed series of reports and/or site visits to maintain the vigor of the accreditation process.

The Living Stations of the Cross

On Thursday, March 25, 2010 at 7 pm our St. Pancras students presented “The Living Stations of the Cross” in our Church.  There was an additional presentation on Monday, March 29, at 1:15. 


From Msgr. Wielunski:

First of all, I must mention the very moving and prayerful "Living Stations of the Cross" presented by our pa-rochial school students under the direction of Ms. Christine Aichinger, one of our 8th grade teachers. Thank you for that gift to the parish and school. I hope that next year many more parishioners will come to experience that.

The Angelus is said throughout the year except during Eastertide, from Easter Sunday through Pentecost, when the Regina Caeli is recited in its place.  According to custom, these prayers are recited at dawn, noon, and in the evening.

Throughout the Easter Season - Until Pentecost (the seventh Sunday after Easter) - the
Regina Caeli (Queen of Heaven) is said in place of the Angelus prayer at 8:25 am, 12 noon and 6:00 pm.
 

The Angelus

In the Angelus, the first part of the Hail Mary is said by the leader, while the others respond with the second part.

V.  The angel of the Lord declared unto Mary.
R.  And she conceived by the Holy Spirit.

V.  Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
R.  Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

V.  Behold the handmaid of the Lord.
R.  Be it done unto me according to your word.
Hail Mary...

V.  And the Word was made flesh.
R.  And dwelt among us.
Hail Mary...

V.  Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God.
R.  That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let us pray:
Pour forth, we beseech Thee, O Lord, Thy grace into our hearts, that we to whom the incarnation of Christ, Thy Son, was made known by the message of an angel, may by His passion and cross be brought to the glory of His resurrection, through the same Christ our Lord.  Amen.

Queen of Heaven


V.  Queen of Heaven, rejoice, alleluia.
R.  For He whom you did merit to bear, alleluia.

V.  Has risen, as he said, alleluia.
R.  Pray for us to God, alleluia

V.  Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia.
R.  For the Lord has truly risen, alleluia.

Let us pray:

O God, who gave joy to the world through the resurrection of Thy Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, grant we beseech Thee, that through the intercession of the Virgin Mary, His Mother, we may obtain the joys of everlasting life. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
 

Glory be...
