Current Aquinas 6th grades RJ Schaller and Evelyn Kennedy, who were more recently campers themselves, took on a volunteer role for the first time this summer. Both say they enjoyed helping the younger kids learn about God. As much as our Aquinas students enjoyed being part of St. Lawrence’s vacation bible school, they’re time makes a big difference to the program. “I appreciate all of their work, they’re so critical to passing on the faith to the little ones,” said Melissa. “They could volunteer at a million other places, but we put them to work here. I’m always impressed with the Aquinas volunteers; I couldn’t speak more highly of them.” ASHYN AVILA ’28 MACKENZIE MURPHY ’22 ELENA DELCORVO ’22 VICTORIA DINOTTIA ’25 ALEXIS GALUSHA ’22 ELLIANA GALUSHA ’24 LUCIA GALUSHA ’27 HEATHER GILLIS ’27 MAYA HEINSBERGEN ’28 EMMA JANAS ’22 MACKENNA BROWN ’22 ALEX KENNEDY ’22 EVELYN KENNEDY ’28 SARAH KRETCHMER ’22 AVERY MARTONE ‘27 GIULIANA SCHALLER ’25 RJ SCHALLER ’28 RYLEIGH SMITH ’24
