You often hear me refer to this school community as "family". And we so genuinely feel that way. We cherish each and every one of you and your children. Our teachers are wonderful and love being here and having the opportunity to show them how much they care. It is our passion and joy.
Our staff, too, is very close and considers each other "sisters in Christ". As such, when one is hurting, we all hurt. Please add your prayers for comfort to our own for Mrs. Betsy Donovan, our music teacher of 34 years! She recently experienced the loss of her husband of over 60 years! Their relationship was a true testament to the sacrament of marriage and the bond it creates.
She is a blessing to us and our hearts are so heavy for her sadness. As she takes some time away from school to be with her SEVEN children and numerous (I lost count) grandchildren. Please remember her in thought and prayer until she returns.
As always, we are grateful for your compassion, understanding, and continued loving support.
Weekly Prayer.... Father, when there is pain, help me to remember that it is my faith that will alleviate that. When there is sadness, help me to turn to You for comfort. When there is joy again, help me to be grateful for that and all my blessings. Amen.
