This morning's Mass was indeed a blessing, with Bishop Gregory L. Parkes gracing us with his presence and leading us in worship. Kudos to our 5th graders for hosting the beautiful Mass.
Bishop Parkes delivered his homily with his words resonated deeply, mainly as he spoke of Blessed Carlo Acutis, whose life serves as a profound example, especially for the young, demonstrating how one can truly embody the message of love through devotion to the Eucharist. In a world often filled with distractions, his example reminds us to center our lives on what truly matters: our faith and relationship with God. Bishop Parkes shared Carlo's message: "The Eucharist is my 'Highway to Heaven,'" giving students bracelets as a reminder.
The opportunity for our students to engage and ask questions with Bishop Parkes after the Mass was an invaluable experience. His responses to their questions were not only insightful but also profoundly inspiring. Moments like these leave a lasting impact, shaping our students' spiritual journeys.
Reflecting on this morning's Mass, we're grateful for the blessings on our students, families, teachers, and staff. It was a lovely start to the week, reminding us of our faith and dedication to love and service to others.
