A Tribute to Mothers on Mother's Day
This Mother's Day, we express our heartfelt thanks to our mothers for their unconditional love and guidance. President Theodore Roosevelt once said, "The mother is the one supreme asset of national life; she is more important by far than the successful statesman, or business man, or artist, or scientist." Today, mothers continue to play a vital part of our national character. On Mother's Day, we honor the women whose steadfast love and wisdom have made America a great nation. Motherhood is a rewarding and often difficult job. A mother is a child's first teacher and affects a child's life like few others can. Loving and selfless mothers can inspire their children to love themselves and others, work hard, make healthy choices, serve causes greater than self, and achieve their dreams. Mothers who protect, teach, and nurture their children with all their hearts strengthen their families and help build a better future for our country. — Pro-Life Articles

Our first grade students are so excited as their chickens have hatched! The classes watched the chicken grow from eggs to tiny birds as part of their Science class. Once the chickens are grown they will be going to live on a farm.
Eighth grade students and their first grade buddies celebrated Earth Day on April 22, with a special project. They planted flowers and vegetables to take home and grow in their own gardens. Thank you to everyone who supported our Spring Virtual Gala 2021! We were able to exceed our goal and so appreciate the generosity from our alumni, families and parishioners. Pictured above is Mr. Sullivan, our Athletic Director and Mr. Velat, our Music & Art teacher.

UNA ALEGRÍA DIFERENTE
No es fácil la alegría. Los momentos de auténtica felicidad parecen pequeños paréntesis en medio de una existencia de donde brotan constantemente el dolor, la inquietud y la insatisfacción. El misterio de la verdadera alegría es algo extraño para muchos hombres y mujeres. Todavía saben quizá reír a carcajadas, pero han olvidado lo que es una sonrisa gozosa, nacida de lo más hondo del ser. Tienen casi todo, pero nada les satisface de verdad. Están rodeados de objetos valiosos y prácticos, pero apenas saben nada de amor y amistad. Corren por la vida absorbidos por mil tareas y preocupaciones, pero han olvidado que estamos hechos para la alegría. Por eso, algo se despierta en nosotros cuando escuchamos las palabras de Jesús: os he hablado «para que participéis de mi gozo, y vuestro gozo sea completo». Nuestra alegría es frágil, pequeña y está siempre amenazada. Pero algo grande se nos promete. Poder compartir la alegría misma de Jesús. Su alegría puede ser la nuestra. El pensamiento de Jesús es claro. Si no hay amor, no hay vida. No hay comunicación con él. No hay experiencia del Padre. Si falta el amor en nuestra vida, no queda más que vacío y ausencia de Dios. Podemos hablar de Dios, imaginarlo, pero no experimentarlo como fuente de gozo verdadero. Entonces el vacío se llena de dioses falsos que toman el puesto del Padre, pero que no pueden hacer brotar en nosotros el verdadero gozo que nuestro corazón anhela. Quizá los cristianos de hoy pensamos poco en la alegría de Jesús y no hemos aprendido a «disfrutar» de la vida, siguiendo sus pasos. Sus llamadas a buscar la felicidad verdadera se han perdido en el vacío tal vez porque seguimos obstinados en pensar que el camino más seguro de encontrarla es el que pasa por el poder, el dinero o el sexo.
La alegría de Jesús es la de quien vive con una confianza limpia e incondicional en el Padre. La alegría del que sabe acoger la vida con agradecimiento. La alegría del que ha descubierto que la existencia entera es gracia. Pero la vida se extingue tristemente en nosotros si la guardamos para nosotros solos, sin acertar a regalarla. La alegría de Jesús no consiste en disfrutar egoístamente de la vida. Es la alegría de quien da vida y sabe crear las condiciones necesarias para que crezca y se desarrolle de manera cada vez más digna y más sana. He aquí una de las enseñanzas clave del Evangelio. Solo es feliz quien hace un mundo más feliz. Solo conoce la alegría quien sabe regalarla. Solo vive quien hace vivir.
