The St. Anastasia School and Church community continues to send its condolences and prayers to the Okwuone family during this very difficult time.
 
Thank you for your continued outpouring of prayers and support during our time of mourning. We began our week in prayer at mass with our 5th grade students and parents. We met with 5th grade parents on Monday and throughout the past few days. We were touched by the many counselors from local agencies and throughout the diocese who wanted to assist our students with their grief. We are continuously praying with faculty, staff, and students and are remembering Celina in small but important gestures like cards, ribbons, and our pink memorial attire. We will provide more information and the school's response to our community when we learn more from authorities about the circumstances of Celina's untimely passing.
 
Tomorrow, May 27th at 1:00 p.m., at St. Anastasia Church, we invite parents, students, teachers, and parishioners to come to the Lord with their grief and sorrow. We wish to celebrate Celina's life and start healing the deep wounds that have been left in our hearts. Media will not be permitted to attend this Memorial Service.
