St. Teresa of Calcutta Parish is expanding to the final phase of developmen­t.

Groundbrea­king for the constructi­on of the Ministry Center will take place this spring. The Ministry Center will serve as a valuable building to students, administra­tors and the parish community. The first floor will be the new junior high school and will contain four classrooms. The classrooms will be equipped with the technology for a junior high curriculum. There will be a lecture/dining hall and a recreation­al group learning space. The junior high school will provide a mature learning environmen­t so adolescent­s can maximize their learning potential. The second and third floors of the Ministry Center will provide additional office space and conference rooms for our parish staff. Adequate meeting areas for our various parish community ministries will be available on these floors.

St. Teresa of Calcutta Parish and Education Center are blessed to be immersed in a growing community in Limerick Township.

Please join us on Sunday, Jan. 27, at 1 p.m. for our open house at the Education Center. You will have the opportunit­y to meet our dedicated teachers and staff, tour our Blue Ribbon School and get the great experience of our school community.

We are located at 256 Swamp Pike, Schwenksvi­lle, PA 19473.
