Our Little Flowers Girls’ Club went on a field trip to the Benedictine Monastery of Thien Tam in Kerens. The girls were able to walk the life-sized Stations of the Cross, discuss the importance of mercy in their lives, visit the Eucharistic Miracles Chapel and the Relics Chapel. Afterwards, they had lunch at Uniquely Yours Village Team Room. We are grateful for these opportunities to focus on the importance of virtues with our students.

Our 5th and 8th grade students go to the Camp of Pines annually. Camp of the Pines is a Catholic retreat site that believes that young people will grow in their relationship with Jesus through their camp. The goal that the staff at Camp of the Pines has is to give youth the confidence and the strength they need to continue their faith journey and to help them foster healthy vocations. As a result of experiences at The Pines, campers come back to campus with a desire to live joyfully and to confidently build the kingdom of God.
Easter Class Celebrations!
These first grade students have been reading to their adopted peeps throughout this past week. The peeps were delivered to the class from E. Bunny and they have enjoyed caring for their peeps this week.
Our eighth grade students hosted live Stations of the Cross for our school to participate in yesterday at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church.
"Behold, my servant shall prosper, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. As many were astonished at him -- his appearance was so marred, beyond human semblance, and his form beyond that of the sons of men -- so shall he startle many nations; kings shall shut their mouths because of him; for that which has not been told them they shall see, and that which they have not heard they shall understand." - Isaiah 52: 13-15
We had a great time at our Little Flowers Girls’ Club meeting. Father Juan Carlos from Immaculate Conception Catholic Church came to the meeting and spoke with the girls about the importance of mercy in our lives. Afterwards, the girls made origami cootie catchers with the Easter story which included Bible verses. We are so grateful to have these opportunities with these sweet servant leaders.
“So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God.” I Corinthians 10:31
