All Saints for All Saints

Living up to their school’s name, the students of All Saints Regional School, Manahawkin, used the occasion of All Saints Day, Nov. 1 to celebrate their faith and share the love of Christ by caring for the elderly in their community.
A Mass for the Solemnity of All Saints was celebrated by Father Douglas Freer, diocesan vicar for Catholic education, and Msgr. Kenard Tuzeneu, pastor of St. Mary Parish, Barnegat. An emotional tribute following the Mass marked the passing of the school’s musical instrument instructor, Phil Nace.

A school-wide All Saints Day service project prompted second, third and fourth grade All Saints students to create greeting cards; their fellow fifth and sixth graders made packages of cookies for the residents of Barnegat Nursing Home, Barnegat; Genesis Nursing Home, Manahawkin, and Seacrest and Arcadia Nursing Homes, both in Tuckerton.
Students from grades seven and eight then boarded buses bound for the nursing homes where they delivered the gifts and visited with the residents.
