Dear
Parents,
Welcome
back to Saint Felicitas and Perpetua School.
To all, I pray that each day this year will reveal the love our Heavenly
Father has for each of you and that it will be enveloped in joy as you watch
your child continue to mature spiritually, intellectually, and emotionally.
My name is
Sister Grace Helena. I am a Carmelite
Sister of the Most Sacred Heart of Los Angeles and will be the school’s
Religion Coordinator and Religion Teacher for 5th, 6th, 7th,
and 8th grade. I am very
happy to be here this year!
This year
will be filled with many moments of revelation for your child as they grow
deeper in the understanding of their faith and the responsibility that goes
with this knowledge. As parents, you are
the primary educators of your child’s faith formation; with this understanding,
I wish to express my gratitude ahead of time for the opportunity and privilege
to teach your child and work in partnership with you.
Your decision
to send your child to Saints Felicitas and Perpetua
School shows your
dedicated interest in developing your child’s love for the sacraments. Our monthly times of Adoration before our
Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, monthly school Masses, and extra prayer services
throughout the liturgical cycles of the year are ways we hope to foster in your
child’s soul a great love for our Lord.
These inestimable times of prayer will also open the doors of their
hearts to say ‘yes’ to the vocation our Lord has planned for them. As you know, these times of prayer do not
substitute for Sunday Mass or frequenting the Sacrament of Reconciliation on
their own. These sacraments must be attended
regularly – and the graces that flow from them will be the greatest support for
you and your child as you walk through the ups and downs of your daily life!
Be assured
of my prayers for you, your child and those you love. Please do not hesitate to contact me should
you have questions or concerns. May our
Blessed Mother shower you with every grace and blessing as we begin this new
school year.
In
His Merciful Heart,
“Form a
beautiful and rich tabernacle to our Lord
in your
heart
and then
do not let Him go.
In that
way you will always have Him with you.”
~Venerable
Mother Luisita~
