From Sand to Snow
Graduates (Past Students) of St. Mary's College can be found around the world. Sade Pryce, a recent graduate left Jamaica on December 22, 2010 to continue her education at Quincy University in Boston. She made it just in time to experience the blizzard of 2010 - no more sand until July!

Go Tell John (LK 7:18-23)
Today the student body packed St. Mary's Church to celebrate their annual Carol Service. Students, faculty and staff were challenged to go tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is the reason St. Mary's College exists. The Gospel of the day recounted the story of John the Baptist sending messengers to Jesus to ask if He is the one- Jesus sent them back and told them to proclaim what they have seen and heard - so too are the members of the College called to do the same - by the way they live their lives each day. The Christmas holiday began after the last exam of the day and the students and teachers will return refreshed (we hope) and ready to begin 2011 on January 4th.
Students needed to sit outside as the Church could not hold the big gathering
Students joyfully sing their praises to the new born KING

Unconditionally Proud!
We received word that our Choir did not receive enough votes to move to the top 4. Although it is disappointing news, we should be extremely proud of our students and their teacher. They entered the competition with 34 other schools, many are much larger than St. Mary's. Not having been in the All Together Sing for many years, their performance was extraordinary. Hard work and determination really paid off. Of course we would be proud of our students even if they didn't move to the top five.
A BIG thank you to all who took the time and credit to vote for Saint Mary's Choir. As a way of offering thanks, a special concert will be held on Friday December 17th at 6:00pm in the Saint Mary's Church yard. All are invited. Admission is free. Refreshments will be on sale and proceeds will go to help the choir reach All Together Sing 2011.

WOW!!!!!!
Watch All Together Sing and be Blessed as our Choir continues to move to the top spot of the competition. They taped Thursday (November 18) at TV J and were fantastic - the best sound all year! Listen to the comments by the three judges. Thanks again for all who have voted and please continue to support St. Mary's College. The students are soooo excited!
The music teacher's pep talk Thursday morning was focused on "David and Goliath" - David doing the seemingly impossible and it was only with the help of the Lord, who was his and our shepherd!
