DUNDALK – The student council at Our Lady of Hope/St. Luke School in Dundalk presented Baltimore County police with a wagon full of snacks the morning of Oct. 9 to thank them for their service in the local community.
Officers had arrived on campus earlier that morning to greet the children as they arrived for classes as part of the National Faith & Blue Weekend – an initiative geared toward bringing law enforcement and communities together.
Baltimore County police reached out to local Catholic churches and other organizations to participate and Our Lady of Hope/St. Luke School embraced the opportunity. In addition to the snacks, its students presented the officers with letters, prayers and gifts for their service.
“The Baltimore County Community Outreach division is bonding with faith communities this week,” said School Sister of Notre Dame Irene Pryle, principal of Our Lady of Hope/St. Luke School. “We have always bonded with them for a variety of activities and especially for showing our appreciation for their service. This was another opportunity to do it. We are happy to have them.”
