Every Student. Every Day. Whatever It Takes.#ThisSchoolWorks
Philippians 2:5
I often enjoy the random memes that I see posted on Facebook and Instagram. Some of my favorites:
Sunday’s carbs don’t count. Those are the Lord’s carbs and He wants you to be happy.
Or
My whole childhood I thought it was illegal to turn on a light in the car while driving! My parents lied to me!
I came across a meme recently that caused me to pause. It said, “If everyone in our school had your attitude what kind of place would it be?”
Carrying out the mission of Verbum Dei, requires all of us- students, parents, faculty and staff to work together, build each other up, and contribute positively to each other’s lives and ministries. That which tears us apart- criticism, negativity, being uncooperative- will never help us fulfill Verbum Dei’s mission. As Fr. Privett stated in his homily, “God’s Spirit calls us to patience, goodness, peace, gentleness- to all those qualities that hold us together and enables us to build each other up, never to tear down.”
Let us move forward displaying those attitudes that, when multiplied, make it easier for us to live out this amazing mission.
“If everyone in our school had your attitude what kind of place would it be?”
Moving forward.
