A Message from our Pastor<br />

A <strong>Night</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Elegance</strong><br />

Dear Friends,<br />

We are very excited about the new location for our annual Guardian Angel<br />

Dinner & Auction. Bringing this key fundraising event into our school enables us to<br />

recognize all the good that the Guardian Angel Dinner & Auction has done over the<br />

years. This room itself has seen numerous improvements over the years, principally<br />

the new ro<strong>of</strong> and new floor. The technology improvements in our building are able<br />

to be showcased for your enjoyment. In so many ways the Guardian Angel Dinner<br />

& Auction has helped us provide a <strong>Catholic</strong> Education for our students. They are<br />

the reason for what we do and we are now celebrating in the place where our<br />

children learn to be Disciples <strong>of</strong> the Lord.<br />

Your presence tonight is a verification <strong>of</strong> the fine work being done by<br />

administrators, teachers and staff in creating a community <strong>of</strong> learning. That community<br />

would be sorely lacking if it did not have you, the parents, grandparents<br />

and benefactors, to count as key members. Together we can forge ahead and make our school a<br />

great one. This year we opened with over 400 students and began the school year as an Accredited School<br />

in the State <strong>of</strong> Nebraska. An important part <strong>of</strong> being accredited is that we look for signs and pro<strong>of</strong> that we<br />

are indeed doing a fine job forming our youth: teaching them how to love, think, communicate, and share.<br />

In recent test scores our students ranked well ahead <strong>of</strong> the average in almost all categories. But we will not<br />

stop there. There are always ways to improve instruction and we will use every means possible to help our<br />

youth graduate, possessing the skills and sound values that will form a foundation for them to become adults<br />

in the church and the world.<br />

I thank you for coming to our Guardian Angel Dinner & Auction. I hope you have a great time and<br />

we can raise lots <strong>of</strong> money for our School.<br />

We also use this occasion to bid goodbye to our retiring principal, Mr. Dave Garland, who has given<br />

most <strong>of</strong> his education career to the children <strong>of</strong> this school. God Bless you, Mr. Garland, and we honor<br />

you with a special salute.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Fr. Owen W. Korte<br />

Pastor<br />

A Message from our Principal<br />

Dear St. <strong>Gerald</strong> School Families and Friends,<br />

Thank you so much for supporting our St. <strong>Gerald</strong> Guardian Angel Dinner<br />

& Auction! Some <strong>of</strong> you have joined us in the past, and for some <strong>of</strong> you, this<br />

is your first experience with our fun evening. This is such a great way to raise<br />

money for our school and parish. Being together for a night <strong>of</strong> good food and<br />

fellowship is well worth all <strong>of</strong> the hard work that goes into putting this event<br />

together.<br />

This year we are excited about raising money that will be used in several<br />

areas <strong>of</strong> our school. We are planning on adding more technology (a mobile laptop lab) to our school.<br />

Your generous donations from the evening will help finance these projects. Please know that all <strong>of</strong><br />

your help is greatly appreciated!<br />

Thank you also to the many volunteers who have worked so hard to make this evening such a big<br />

success! We could not have gotten this all done without your help!! God bless you all!!!<br />

Sincerely,<br />

1<br />

Dave Garland, Principal

2013 Guardian Angel Dinner & Auction<br />

BIDDERS CAN CONTRIBUTE CASH<br />

AT FOUR GIVING LEVELS<br />

We are thrilled to continue a donation program introduced<br />

at the 2001 Guardian Angel Auction & Dinner and introduce an exciting<br />

new change for 2013. This program allows individuals to make<br />

cash donations at one <strong>of</strong> four different levels.<br />

During the Live Auction, bidding will begin at the $1,000<br />

Guardian Angel Level and proceed until all levels have been completed.<br />

Bidders can accept a bid called by the auctioneer, at any level,<br />

by raising their bid cards. Bidders are also asked to complete a pledge<br />

card, located at your table. Volunteers will collect the pledge cards<br />

from your table as bidding concludes.<br />

Cash donations corresponding to each level received outside<br />

<strong>of</strong> the live auction (either prior to or after the auction) will be<br />

recognized at the different levels <strong>of</strong> giving outlined below.<br />

The first three donation levels (Guardian Angel, Angel <strong>of</strong><br />

Love, and Angel <strong>of</strong> Faith) will be displayed at St. <strong>Gerald</strong> School, with<br />

donor names inscribed on a plaque.<br />

We have added a new giving level for 2013, “St. <strong>Gerald</strong><br />

Pride Paw.” For every $100 donation, the donor name will be displayed<br />

on a paw print in the Father Foster Gymnasium for the 2013-<br />

2014 school year.<br />
