St. Joachim School Alumni

It may have taken over a century but St. Joachim School finally has an alumni association.  While the school has closed, the spirit lives on and it is in that spirit that well over 200 people gathered after the 10:30 Mass last Sunday for the first meeting.  It was like a reunion with old and younger alike browsing through the old pictures and papers that documented their years at the corner of Penn and Church Streets.  If you missed it and want more information contact the parish office at 215-535-0580.

See the short video below.  You may recognize some old friends.
