Dear Parents,
Throughout Lent, the students have been learning and acting upon different ways that they can grow closer to God. Now that we find ourselves in the middle of HOLY WEEK, I hope you find that your journey through Lent has brought you and your family closer to God, and that together, we can keep our faith strong and share the love that God the Father has shown us. Remember Jesus’ gift of the Eucharist on Holy Thursday, and the ultimate sacrifice he made for us on Good Friday so that our sins could be forgiven. Together, take time to say a prayer of thanksgiving for God’s love as we await Jesus’ resurrection on Easter.
We pray:
Heavenly Father, thank you for the gift of everlasting life brought about by the resurrection of your son from the dead! This dark night is enlightened by a glimpse of the greatest mystery. Our minds could never have conceived how you would save us, Lord, nor can we ever fully understand the depths of your love in choosing to do so. We thank you for all that you have done for us throughout Lent. Now, throughout Easter, grant us the fullness of life. AMEN.
(Adapted from “The Joy of Lent: Encouragement and Daily Prayers”)
Have a joyous Easter!
--Mrs. Sandra Jimenez
