On Sunday, August 16, the students and parishioners of St. Mary Magdalen Catholic Church in Brentwood celebrated the start of the school year by attending a Backpack Blessing during the 9:30 a.m. mass.

Father Jack Siefert told the students to prepare, with God’s help, for a nine month marathon race called school. He called the student forward with their backpacks and gave them a blessing. “The marathon is on! On your mark, get ready, get set, go!” he said.

He reminded them that with God’s help they will have an amazing school year.
