Mardi Gras is French for Fat Tuesday. We gathered together united by God's love to celebrate the amazing hearts of compassion of all our students and staff.
Our Lenten theme this year is the 10/10 challenge. The 10/10 Challenge is a Global Action sponsored by Aviva and Free the Children. At BA, we've made a choice to be leaders of social change in our world. When our students proudly wear their Benedictine Academy uniform, they are sign posts to our brothers and sisters across the planet that someone cares.
Wearing Mardi Gras beads, they formed a circle of love to pray for those who are suffering and for peace in our troubled world. In the background, on a large stage screen we joined the voices of WE ARE THE WORLD 25. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Glny4jSciVI
