MTCES hosts Mother Teresa Stamp Dedication
Tuesday, September 7th
at 10 a.m.
The United States Postal Service (USPS) is honoring Blessed Mother Teresa with a commemorative stamp this fall. While national dedication honors will be held in Washington D.C. on Labor Day Sunday, MTCES is proud to host the southwest Ohio honors, with a special ceremony on Tuesday, September 7th 2010, beginning at 10 a.m. in the Sister Anne Student Center.
This event is open to the public, though parents, grandparents and other visitors are expected to check in at the school office fifteen minutes prior to the start.
The Most Rev. Daniel E. Pilarczyk, recently retired Archbishop of Cincinnati, new Archdiocese of Cincinnati School Superintendent James Rigg, State Representative Bill Coley, and Ryan Day from U.S. House Minority Leader John Boehner’s office are among the dignitaries attending. USPS Middletown Postmaster Greg Engel and USPS Hamilton Postmaster Todd O’Reilly will represent the United States Postal Service, and provide a special cancellation stamp to commemorate the date of issue.
A special commemorative envelope, with a Mother Teresa stamp and special cancellation, will be given to the students to celebrate the event. This stamped envelope will also be made available for purchase by collectors through the school office.
