News & Announcements

This weekend, we celebrate the Chinese New Year. This year, MCP has two international students who are not able to be with their family during their new year celebrations - Xianning 'Serena' Mu and Hsuan Wu. If you see them, please wish them a Happy New Year!

All are invited to tonight’s Adoration evening at St Patrick Church in Arroyo Grande. It is a time for worship, prayer, and reconciliation. It is open to all families. A little bonfire with refreshments follows outside at the church. The event is from 5:30-7:00 PM.

Despite the rain and stormy conditions last Saturday, MCP was able to serve 98 meals to those in need at People's Kitchen.

A HUGE thank you to all involved:
- Freshman students and parents for purchasing, cooking and bringing the food.
- Co-coordinators from across the county that collected and brought food & donations. Mark, Sonia & Holly.
- Student volunteers that served, Ava, Elijah, Marshall, Cooper & Nolan.

The hot lunch; Lasagne, grilled veggies, salad, fruit, cookies and drinks was appreciated maybe more today than ever!

Please keep supporting this meaningful program, thank you. 🙏
