According to John Rakowski, who leads the activities at the Respite Games and has served as a Respite volunteer for many years, “My life became so much more significant when I got involved in Respite. To be able to pal around with these kids is such a blessing.”

Families from the parish who have special needs children and are interested in participating in the Respite Games on Spirit Day are invited to contact Linda Leone at St. Anne’s Parish office at 352-5904.
