Saint Patrick's Day (Irish: Lá ’le Pádraig or Lá Fhéile
Pádraig), colloquially St. Paddy's Day or Paddy's Day,
is an annual feast day which celebrates Saint Patrick
(circa 385–461), one of the patron saints of Ireland,
and is generally celebrated on 17 March. The day is the
national holiday of the Irish people, it is widely
celebrated In the U.S.A., but is not an official
holiday. It became a feast day in the Roman Catholic
Church due to the influence of the Waterford-born
Franciscan scholar Luke Wadding in the early part of the
17th century, and is a holy day of obligation for Roman
Catholics in Ireland.
The
date of the feast is occasionally moved by church
authorities when March 17 falls during Holy Week; the
last two times this happened were in 1940 when Saint
Patrick's Day was observed on 3 April in order to avoid
it coinciding with Palm Sunday, and it happened again
most recently in 2008, when it was held on 15 March for
the novus ordo liturgy and April 2 for the traditional
Latin Mass to avoid the second day in Holy Week.. For more Info

Children's Heart
Foundation to Award Smart Heart Scholarships |
|
| |
Foundation will award two Nevada college-bound
students $2500
Children’s Heart Foundation will make it a
little easier for two of Nevada’s graduating
high school seniors to attend college this fall
by awarding $2500 scholarships to two qualified
students who have excelled academically and have
been affected by heart conditions.
To be eligible to receive one of the Smart Heat
Scholarships, applicants must attend a Nevada
public or private high school, have a minimum
3.0 GPA, be attending a four year college or
university following graduation, and be a
congenital heart disease patient currently seen
by a pediatric cardiologist.
Students meeting the eligibility requirements
are encouraged to submit an application with a
resume, cover letter, and high school transcript
to the Children’s Heart Foundation. Along with
the application, students must submit a letter
from the patient’s pediatric cardiologist that
includes diagnosis and last medical visit, an
essay on how experiences related to heart issues
will help later in life, and two letters of
recommendation.
Applications should be submitted to Children’s
Heart Foundation no later than Friday, May 1,
2009 and winners will be notified by July 10,
2009. Scholarship applications are available for
download at
www.chfn.org. If you have any questions
regarding the scholarship or are interested in
sponsorship opportunities please contact Renee
Rietgraf, Development Manager, at (702) 967-3522
or
[email protected]. |
