March Reflection from Brother Domenic | "In praying, do not babble like the pagans, who think they will be heard because of their many words." Matthew 6:7 Everything started with words. God spoke: let there be light and time, land and life. The universe took shape from simple commands. In an economy of words, God created everything. | |

|
| As we move into the month of March and begin the Liturgical Season of Lent, let us be reminded of the incredible sacrifice that our Lord made for us by giving up his only Son.
| |
February was a very successful and busy month and the teachers and students did a wonderful job maintaining their positive spirits throughout the month.
