Good morning - and I pray it is good in each of your homes - let's think of one thing we are grateful for - there are SO MANY blessings amid all the concerns - they will help us stay positive! Students and parents - CONGRATULATIONS - you are completing your first week of online school!! We will all continue to be patient and grow in this process - GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU! Today, Thursday March 19th, is the Feast Day of St. Joseph. We talked and read about how he lived his life at Christmas time. The one clear message, example, he left us was to LISTEN to God for guidance, then TRUST in God's WISDOM. Today Pope Francis has asked the world to pray together the Rosary of the Luminous Mysteries, the Mysteries of Light, at 9pm Rome time, which is 1pm, this afternoon, our time. Your assignments today will be centered around this - see them below. May God bless you and your family's day - the beauty of His nature is certainly doing that now! I hope all of you found something to share with your families about St. Patrick or St. Patrick's Day and also found time to say a prayer of thanks for all those who help build faith in our world, especially today!
