I found him at door locked at the current Pastor the 8th pastor of st. Pius the 10th church school Community I'm very glad to I'll be back as Pastor now I went to St Pius school between the years 1976 and 1984 so from first grade to 8th grade then went on to Bishop Kelly the teachers that I had an all my classmates encouraged I thought very many ways my own vocation towards the priesthood and a very grateful for those opportunities I have while here as a student in 1957 when the first class started at st. Pius the tenth School the church was literally a barn students the creek to get to mass once a week the school buildings were prefabricated Barracks bought and shipped on the railroad from Fort Chaffee in Fort Smith father fee our founding Pastor recruited the group of 60 parishioners to help construct and red the campus for the first class in the fall of 1957 on volunteerism the neighborhood decided they wanted to build a school so it was built with volunteers the sisters back then couldn't afford buy carpeting so they came up with this idea that we would go through the carpeting that carpet stores throughout so they asked me if I would take some of the neighborhood kids and my kids around so we went to all the carpet stores and we've got all the carpet I was worth saving service is always been an important part of this team is community I remember when I was a student my mom would take her turn working in the cafeteria it's always fun to walk into the calf.
