Dear Parents and Families,
We continue our school-wide theme of exploring mindfulness as presented in the book I Am Peace. Mrs. Norsigian and Mr. Sarpu presented this month’s reflection.
“By practicing mindfulness, we can tap into the present moment and experience a sense of deep connection and inner peace.” This quote reminds us of the importance of mindfulness and its practice. Whether incorporating breathing exercises, meditation, journaling or being kind-hearted, mindfulness practices help us cultivate and grow our faith. Our strong Catholic foundation will support us, especially during challenging times.
The parable of the Mustard Seed teaches us that God's Word, though small in appearance, has incredible transformative power. It shows that great things can come from humble beginnings and that, as believers, we should plant God's Word in our hearts through prayer, meditation, and song.
The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his
field; it is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.
Matthew 13:31-32
As a Catholic community, remember to practice patience, prayer, and more during mindful May!
