Thanksgiving Food Drive

This Thanksgiving seems very different. Our sisters and brothers in our own families, our own communities, our country, and across the globe are suffering in so many ways. And yet, it is a time of thanksgiving. Gratitude of heart is the healing balm for all the ills of our world.

Each day we pray and give thanks to God for the gift of our lives, for the gift of Benedictine Academy, for the gift of Sr. Germaine, Mr. Jennings and Ms. Banks for their dedication and unceasing labor of love to our school, and for the gift of each other.

This past week, the Student Council joined forces with Students In Action to share their food with others. That is what family does. We take care of each other. The reality is we are all sisters and brothers; we are all God's children. We need to care. If we don't, who will?
