Eucharistic Miracle Siena, Italy 1730

Lord Jesus, grant me the grace to live with true integrity, free from hypocrisy and evildoing. Help me to cleanse my heart so that my inner life reflects Your ways on the outside. May I honor the legacy of the prophets by living faithfully and courageously in Your truth. Guide me to be genuine in my actions and words, bearing witness to Your love and justice. Amen

“You ask me whether I am in good spirits. How could I not be so? As long as faith gives me strength, I will always be joyful!”

Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati

Dear Parents,

The first few weeks of school are going fast. As we approach our first 3-day weekend, I pray that you and your family can rest.



Next week we will have our Back to School Nights. The Back to School Night on September 4 is for families with children in grades PK-4. The evening will begin at 6:00 p.m. in the gym followed by sessions hosted in your child’s classroom.

The Back to School Night on September 5 is for families with children in grades 5-8. The evening will begin at 6:00 p.m. in the gym followed by the opportunity to walk your child’s schedule. A copy of your child’s schedule will be available in the gym. Families with multiple children in grades 5-8 may choose to pick and choose the classes to visit between the different schedules.



God Bless,

Erin Vu
