faithful to God• Accompanies us, her
children. • Her motherly affection
for each person is a source of hope and true joy
• 24 May – Feast of Mary Help of Christians
As a Catholic school, we remember Mary’s care and love for everyone!
Our school founders had a strong devotion to Mother Mary who guided and helped them through the years.
As a Christian, we look up to Mary as our example of humility and openness to God’s will.
We ask her to help us to listen carefully to God speaking in our hearts and to share our faith with others joyfully.
• Today we are invited to reflect on the beauty of motherhood!
• Motherhood points to unconditional love, tenderness, and life-time commitment.
• A mother is a priceless gift.
