We invite you to join us for a prayer service on Wednesday at 7pm in the Church for the continued healing and comfort of St. Barnabas parent and parishioner Nick Barraco. The power of prayer is incredible, and our ability to come together as a school and community in times of need is one of the greatest blessings here at St. Barnabas; all are welcome.

Nick was seriously injured this past weekend. He is currently recovering in the hospital. Our hearts are with the entire Barraco family, who tirelessly give their support and kindness to St. Barnabas and our Beverly community!🫶🏻🙏🏻

Thank you to the Barraco Family for supporting our community. We are grateful for your generosity and kindness always.

Barraco's is a staple of our community. The Barraco Family is the first to step up and out for benefits, school fundraisers, and kindergartens making pizza 101. Hosting countless celebrations of life, the Barraco Family continues to set the bar high.
We're grateful for their continued support, and honored they call Mt.Greenwood home!💚

Our recent Unity Walk was a step toward healing after a public safety incident in our community. We felt compelled to put this idea into action when a neighbor suggested it to us, and we’re so glad we did. Hundreds of community members came out as a show of support for their fellow neighbors, proving that we are stronger when we stand—and walk—together. Read about it in this month’s Villager.
