Huge thanks to everyone who supported our Youth Choir Walkathon!

One week ago, last Saturday, our incredible youth laced up their sneakers and walked with so much joy and energy to support our parish music ministry. We are immensely proud of their dedication and faith in action!
A very special thank you goes out to:

• Our Choir Director, Anne Myers, for leading our youth with such passion and grace.

• Mrs. Maria Buchan, our wonderful parent liaison, for her tireless coordination and support.

• All of our amazing parents, whose constant help and encouragement made this event possible.

• Our generous parish community, for your prayers and financial support.

As St. Augustine beautifully reminded us, "He who sings prays twice." May our youth continue to lift their voices and hearts to the Lord!

Let us pray:
"O Lord, bless our youth choir and all who support them. May their music always bring glory to Your name, joy to our parish, and peace to our hearts. Amen

Prayer: Saint Luke, you were a faithful servant of Saint Paul and a devout worshiper of Jesus, your Lord. You placed before God all your natural gifts, your education, time, and energy so that He could use you for the fulfillment of His holy will and the proclamation of the Gospel. Please pray for me, that I will always devote myself without hesitation to the fulfillment of God’s will, so that God can use me as He will to draw many to Christ. Saint Luke, pray for me. Jesus, I trust in You.

Prayer: Our Lady of the Rosary, you entrusted this holy prayer to Saint Dominic, and through him to the world. You are always attentive to the prayers of the Rosary and never fail to pour forth God’s grace in response. Please pray for me, that I will more deeply comprehend the power of the Rosary and will never fail in my duty to pray it every day. Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for me. Jesus, I trust in You.

Prayer: Saint Francis, you fell radically in love with God and with God’s people. You embraced poverty, prayer, sacrifice, and every form of suffering for the sake of Christ. You became a true knight in the army of the Kingdom. Please pray for me, that I will be able to detach from everything in this life that keeps me from the love and service of God, so that I can imitate the life that you lived. Saint Francis of Assisi, pray for me. Jesus, I trust in You.
