FEBRUARY IS NATIONAL CHILDREN’S
DENTAL HEALTH MONTH
The American Dental Association, along with the ADA Foundation, is
pleased to provide you with the February 2017 National Children’s Dental
Health Month (NCDHM) slogan, “Choose Tap Water for a Sparkling Smile.”
This month-long national health observance brings together thousands
of dedicated dental professionals, healthcare providers and educators
to promote the benefits of good oral health to children, their caregivers,
teachers and many others.
Developing good habits at an early age and scheduling regular dental
visits helps children to get a good start on a lifetime of healthy teeth and
gums. To access free online resources that can help you with teaching
CHILDREN’S ORAL CARE
Take good care of your child’s baby teeth. They do eventually fall out
but until they do, baby teeth play an important role in helping your child
bite and chew food, and speak clearly. Many of the same treatment and
evaluation options that adults have are also available to kids. These
include X-rays, dental sealants, orthodontic treatment and more.
WIGGLY TEETH - When a child is about 6 years old, his/her teeth will
begin to come loose. Let your child wiggle the tooth until it falls out on its
own. This will minimize the pain and bleeding associate with a lost tooth.
CAVITIES - Cavities can develop when sugar-containing foods are
allowed to stay in the mouth for a long time. Bacteria that live on the
teeth feast on these bits of food and can eat away at tooth enamel.
Saliva washes away the acid between meals, but if your child is always
eating, there may not be time for this acid to get washed away.

FREE! SHROVE TUESDAY PANCAKE DINNER
Take a break from cooking dinner on Tuesday, February 28 th ! Join us at
Epiphany Lutheran Church for our Annual Shrove Tuesday Pancake Dinner.
Dinner is served from 5-7 PM. Enjoy some Mardi Gras music while you eat
dinner! Children will create an Alleluia Banner, Mardi-Gras masks and Crowns
and end the evening with a Parade and sing-a-long as we bury our Alleluias
in preparation for Lent. Shrove Tuesday is a day of celebration as well as
penitence, because it’s the last day before Lent. Lent is a time of abstinence,
of giving things up. So Shrove Tuesday came about as the last chance to
indulge yourself and to use up the foods that weren’t allowed in Lent. Giving
up foods: but not wasting them. In the old days there were many foods that
observant Christians would not eat during Lent: foods such as meat and fish,
fats, eggs and milky foods. So that no food was wasted, families would have

a feast on the shriving Tuesday and eat up all the foods that wouldn’t last
the forty days of Lent without spoiling. The need to eat up the fats gave rise
to the French name Mardi Gras; meaning fat Tuesday. Pancakes became
associated with Shrove Tuesday as they were a dish that could use up all the
eggs, fats and milk in the house with just the addition of flour.
ST. CUTHBERT EPISCOPAL CHURCH
17020 West Road • www.stcuthbert.org
You are invited to St. Cuthbert Episcopal Church’s Shrove Tuesday Pancake
Supper on February 28 th from 5:30-7 PM. We will eat pancakes and play
bingo! Shrove Tuesday originated during the Middle Ages. Food items like
meats, fats, eggs, milk and fish were regarded as restricted during Lent. To
keep such food from being wasted, many families would have big feasts
on Shrove Tuesday. The English tradition of eating pancakes on Shrove
Tuesday came about as a way to use as much milk, fats and eggs as possible
before Ash Wednesday began. In France, the consumption of all fats and
fatty foods on this day coined the name “Fat Tuesday” or Mardi Gras.
You are also invited to the Ash Wednesday services at St. Cuthbert
Episcopal church on March 1 st at 6:30 AM, 4:30 PM and 7 PM. All services
have Holy Communion and the imposition of ashes. The 4:30 PM service
is designed for children and their families. Ash Wednesday marks the
beginning of the season of Lent, which is dedicated to reflection, prayer
and fasting in preparation for Easter.

Join St. Cuthbert Episcopal Church on Wednesday nights March 8 th
through April 5 th , from 6:30-7:30 PM for our Lenten series, Forty Days in
the Force. All ages are invited to participate. We will explore the many
spiritual themes that weave throughout the Star Wars films. From the
Force to the dark side, the issues presented in the films have a moral and
spiritual complexity that, if paid attention to, can help us better understand
our place in the world and our relation to others and to God. Through
Forty Days in the Force we hope to see the challenges and victories in our
everyday Christian life. There will always be a teacher and a student and
there will always be evil, but thanks to God and his Son, there will always
be good and we will always have a purpose. Nursery will be provided for
infants and toddlers. Star Wars activities will be provided for preschoolers.
Those ages 6 through 106 will explore the force together.

STEPS FOR STUDENTS: A 5K RUN/WALK
Are you a runner who enjoys family-friendly races? Are you an alumnus of
a parochial school? Do your children, grandchildren or children of friends
attend a parochial school? Do you like to have fun with 10,000+ plus
people? If you answered yes to any of these questions or even if you didn’t,
the 2017 Steps for Students 5k Race/Walk is for you. Steps for Students
is a 5k USA Track and Field Association sanctioned race which benefits
Catholic education in the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston. Held every
year in February, Steps for Students has grown to include over 10,000
participants, filling the streets around the Co-Cathedral with runners,
walkers, families, kids and adults. Each Catholic school in the Archdiocese
has its own team which you can join or donate to. Race Day begins with a
sunrise Mass at the Co-Cathedral followed by the race itself. In 2017, the
race will take a new, East-West direction under I69, but it will still begin
and end at the Co-Cathedral. Afterward, you can enjoy the Post Race Party
in the nearby Race Day Village. All donations and registration fees (minus
a $3 fee) go directly to your designated school, where they can be used
to help fund scholarships, improve
the campus, add to the educational
experience of the students or whatever
is needed or desired. If running and
getting up early is not your thing, there
is even a Snooze option. You can also
sponsor your favorite runner or school
by simply making a donation.
The date for the 2017 Steps for
Students 5k Race/Walk is Saturday,
February 18, 2017. The sunrise Mass
begins at 6:30 AM with the race itself beginning at 8 AM. Registration is
currently underway, but the last day to register at the low price of $15
(which includes a t-shirt) is February 1, 2017. After that, registration
increases to $25, so register early. Steps for Students is a great way to
get out, get some exercise, see our beautiful city with your own eyes and
make some new friends, all the while supporting Catholic education and
the wonderful opportunities it provides to students of all backgrounds
and faiths. For more information about Steps for Students go to http://
