This First Friday, we clebrated the Feast of St. Blaise as one sacred community at the St. Walburga Monastery.Our celebrant this month was Father Jack Martin of Elizabeth and he was absolutely awesome. The chapel was filled with the Spirit as he gave a most inspiring homily on the meaning of what it means to be a Christian and the joy of serving. "We cannot change the world, but we can make a difference. We can all do something!"
Wonderful Music was in abundance with Sister Karin on the piano, two singing groups, and Father Jack playing his guitar as he sang, "Let me be a little kinder..." .
Mass concluded with the honoring of this month's Students In Action Unsung Heroes. Based on a school-wide poll, there were three outstanding young students - Rose, Kayla, and Gabby - whose dedication and love for the daily sacrifice and care of their elderly grandparents with significant illnesses. Sister Donna Jo, who cared for her own mother for over seven years after her mom suffered from a severe head injury, gave a beautiful reflection on the meaning of Compassionate Action.
