Rediscover / Redécouvrir
Good morning St. Kateri,
Preparing the soil for planting involves finding remnants of what has happened to the land before. In the same way, we look back to what has been learned and what has been lost during the past couple of years and what we have all shared. Part of that may have even been rediscovering the beauty in gardening. The garden reminds us of the original garden, the many creation stories told by different communities, and the blessings of the earth that is our common home.
“I have found the coin that I lost.” Lk. 15:9b
“Réjouissez-vous avec moi, car j’ai retroé la pièce d’argent que j’avais perdue!” Lc 1uv5, 9b
We hope that you and your family are safe and healthy. As we start this first week of May, we are so lucky to have a chance to celebrate our ability to attend a school that not only allows our students to become critical thinkers in subjects like Math, Language and French. We also are afforded the opportunity to gather as a community and further our understanding of our faith! This year’s theme is:Rebuild, Renew, Restore Together. Each day has a sub theme; today is Rediscover / Redécouvrir
