Happy National School Counselors Week!

Dear Jesus, there are many times when I am tempted to do something I know I shouldn't do, because no one is there to see me, like eating candy or cookies when my mom isn't around. Help me to practice the virtue of trustworthiness so that others know I will make the right choice even when no one is watching. Amen.

Our virtue of the week is faith.
Dear Jesus, thank You for our school families, our parish, our faculty and staff, and our amazing priests who share their faith with all of us, especially during Catholic Schools Week.

Sometimes teaching in a Catholic School is overwhelming.
Take, for example, this morning at All School Mass. Father Joseph speaks to the children about David’s belief that the Lord would uphold him and keep him safe. Father shared how, at the close of Mass, the priest says
“The Lord be with you.” He encouraged the children to think about the power of fully believing that God will protect us as we leave the Mass. He encouraged them to take God with them as they go about their school day. Their life.
As the 5th grade students processed toward the altar to lead the Prayers of the Faithful, Father summoned them by calling “the courageous among us to lead us in prayer.”
And to end with our sweet young souls singing the Salve Regina. So beautiful!
It is just overwhelming teaching in this Catholic School.

Bring in cereal boxes Monday 12/8-Wednesday 12/10. All items will go to stock the Catholic Charities food pantry. Kindergarten-5th grade students should give items to their homeroom teachers. Middle School students should give their cereal boxes to their House Mentors.

Our preschool was filled with joy and gratitude last week as the wonderful parents came together to surprise both preschool teachers with beautiful wedding showers! Their thoughtfulness and love were a true reflection of Christ’s heart while celebrating the gift of marriage and the blessing of community. We are so thankful for the way these families continue to lift one another up in faith, joy, and love.
