OLM Students Portray Living Stations of the Cross
In what has become an annual tradition, the eighth graders at OLM school, under the direction of teachers Jeremy Long and Karen Kanel, enact the Living Stations of the Cross for the school and parish community during the latter part of the Lenten season. This year’s service took place on Friday, April 4 due to the upcoming April vacation falling during Holy Week. The moving reenactment involves the whole eighth grade class in some way, as readers and actors. The entire student body attended the 1:00 pm service during the school day, with dozens of parents and parishioners attending the evening session at 7:00 p.m.
With a tradition of excellence in Catholic education since 1951, Our Lady of Mercy School supports its students as they strive to be the saints and scholars that God is calling them to be. Accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, the Pre-K through Grade 8, co-educational Catholic school located in East Greenwich, RI offers its students the opportunity to pursue excellence in academics, athletics, and the arts in a nurturing environment built upon the teachings of the Catholic Church.
