This month we celebrated All Saints Day at the Benedictine Sisters' Monastery Chapel. We were especially blessed to have Father Dong Yadao from St. Teresa's Parish in Summit. Father Dong was recently ordained to the Priesthood last May 28, 2011 at the Archdiocese of Newark in New Jersey.
During his inspiring homily, Father encouraged everyone present to know (kilala) Christ more deeply because that is the only way we can spread His gospel of love. By our baptism, we are all called to sainthood.
The Gospel Choir and Sister Karin added their beautiful voices of praise as we chanted the Litany of Saints and asked the Lord to "Open the eyes of our hearts". At Benedictine Academy, we believe the celebration of Eucharist and prayer are the foundation of "living the good life".
