Dear Parents,

As Catholics we are encouraged to read the Bible. In reading these words, we grow in our faith and in our relationship with God. Scripture reading is different for each of us. It is meant for us to learn from and to come to an understanding of how we can actively incorporate the lessons and messages of God into our daily lives and helps us to become more faithful people.  May  I suggest to attempt to take one section of the Bible and read a small passage, see what its meaning brings to you, and try and use that in your life this week.  


Quote from Pope Francis:

"We are all called to go out as missionaries and bring the message of God's love to every person in every area of life."



Faithfully yours,

Miss Giaquinto
