Hope is what keeps you going. Love is what brings you to the end, Mother Angelica During our third annual Bizarre Bazaar, St. Monica was blessed by the generous donations of baked goods from Alina Lopez-Givens, who operates La Rocca Bakery. Ms. Lopez–Givens is Ms. Mirena Lopez Corvetto’s sister—our parent, and CSPC member who helped organize this year’s bazaar. This year we profited close to $2000, where the baked goods accounted for half the sales! Thanks again to all the parents and staff that came out to support our annual bazaar, and a special thanks again to Ms. Lopez-Givens for her generous gift.
