St. Finn Barr Weekly Bulletin
Week of January 18th - January 22nd
Dear St. Finn Barr Families,
We begin this week commemorating the life and legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. on Monday. As I reflect on his life and the impact it has had on our society as a whole, I am always amazed at how Martin Luthern King Jr. never stopped. When things became more challenging, more dangerous, riskier, he never gave up. He encouraged us to keep going. To look to what the future holds and keep on keeping on. As I think of everything we have faced this school year, I believe we have followed Martin Luther King Jr.'s lead when I think of this quote:
If you can't fly, then run.
If you can't run, then walk.
If you can't walk, then crawl,
but by all means, keep moving.
We have faced many challenges this year, and I have witnessed how our community has come together to help one another to keep moving. We may not all be flying, but we are all moving, and we will continue to move with one another as we follow the example of Martin Luther King Jr. We will move with compassion and help our children understand that we move together. We do not leave each other behind. We move with love.
Thank you, St. Finn Barr community, for keeping the focus on caring for others, whether it is in a tangible way or through prayer. Know that you are in a community that will hold your hand and help you along the way. Even if you feel like you can't crawl, we will continue to move forward in this journey together and grow stronger from it together.
As we look forward to the weeks ahead, we have many exciting things on the horizon, including Catholic Schools Week. While it may look a little different this year, we still have fun things planned for our students, friends, and families. Please take a moment to review the information below to see how you can help us have a Catholic Schools Week like never before! Thank you for your partnership in all of this!
