Our Father Who Art In Heaven

As a father, I always like when all of my children are home. When one of my children is away I pray that they will return home safely. God, our Father, wants the same thing for all of His children. We are all on a journey home to the Father. Jesus taught us the words to pray the Our Father. He told us our Father is in heaven and then proceeded to give us the us the directions to get there.

“I asked God for strength that I might achieve. I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey.
I asked for health that I might do greater things. I was given sickness that I might do better things.
I asked for riches that I might be happy. I was given poverty that I might be wise.
I asked for power that I might have the praise of men. I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God.
I asked for all things that I might enjoy life. I was given life that I might enjoy all things.
I got nothing that I asked for, but everything I hoped for.

National Anthem Auditions were held on August 25th at 3:00 in the Parish Center.

Alexandra S. and Gabby A. were this years winners! Congratulations!

Alexandra will sing at the Varsity football game and Gabby will sing at the Junior Varsity football game on September 2, 2010.
