One activity was painting blessing rocks that all classes dropped on house doorsteps around our school neighbourhood community. “St. Joseph School wishes all families in Nelson safety and health during these difficult times,” said the school’s Becky Lauriente. “We are blessed to be a part of an amazing community.” Photos: Submitted
