The Guardian of the Holy Family
The District of Eastern North America (DENA) presents the 13th annual Christmas Card Contest.
As the Church’s Year of Saint Joseph comes to a close, as does our Lasallian celebration of the patron Saint of our Brothers’ Institute, we invite our student artists to reflect on this humble member of the Holy Family. In what is surely a time of great trepidation, elation, and celebration of his son, let us focus on the protector of Jesus, the father to the father of us all: The Guardian of the Holy Family.
- Open to middle school students in 7th and 8th grades, as well as all high school students in grades 9-12.
- The card will be sent to the Brothers and their communities, schools & ministries, DENA leaders, and other Lasallians throughout the District.
