May Crowning
A message from our principal
Mother’s Day is this Sunday, May 14.
On behalf of the faculty, staff, students and parents, we pray for all mothers.
Bless all mothers, that their love may be deep and tender,
and that they may lead their children to know and do what is good,
living not for themselves alone, but for God and for others.
The loveliest masterpiece of the heart of God is the love of a Mother.
-St. Therese of Lisieux
Congratulations to our students who received their First Holy Communion this weekend. Welcome to the Eucharist, and the many blessings you will receive through the Most Blessed Sacrament!
We have two openings for the School Advisory Council for 2017-18 school year. Please contact me if you are interested.
Peace in Christ,
Dr. John Shreve
