I hope you’ve had a good summer and had a chance to spend some time with family, friends and Jesus. I’ve heard about some of the things your schools have been doing this past year and I’m always proud when I hear how our schools are making a difference in the many communities of our diocese. Thank you for your good work and care for those around you.
