Cistercian attends “Rays of Light” in DallasThis September Fr. John and a student from Form V volunteered at Rays of Light, a Dallas philanthropy dedicated to serving children with special needs and their families. They spent an evening blowing bubbles, watching a movie, and playing sports, Legos and other fun games with the children. During the evening, they came across the son of our own faculty member, Peter Saliga, and together they sat with him and his friend to eat some birthday cake. Students can sign up to volunteer with Rays of Light at any time through their website. They can also check their MobileServe account for future invitations to volunteer together as a Cistercian group.
