Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, ever faithful to your promises and ever close to your church: the earth rejoices in hope of the Savior's coming and looks forward with longing to his return at the end of time. Prepare our hearts and remove the sadness that hinders us from feeling the joy and hope which His presence will bestow, for He is Lord for ever and ever.
~Roman Rite
Dear Holy Rosary School Families,
This week our school and parish community experienced much sadness in the midst of this beautiful Advent season. We must anchor ourselves in our faith and share with each other the joy and hope that His presence will provide. Our wonderful Little Dominican preschoolers, pre-kindergarteners, kindergarteners and 8th graders shared their voices in song and prayer at their Christmas program. The innocence of our children move us to be centered in Christ and are a beautiful reminder to pause and have joy.
As we light the rose-colored candle on the Third Sunday of Advent, we rejoice in our joyful expectation of the Lord's birth and second coming. What are you doing to inspire hope and joy in others?
We invite you to join us for mass tomorrow at 8:00 a.m.
In Partnership,
Mrs. Fely Fajardo
Interim Principal
During the Advent season we invite you to journey to peace.
Seeking peace, making peace, praying for peace.
There are several ways to begin seeking such peace.
One way, is to visit our beautiful church during the week.
Come to pray, come to read, come to sit with Christ during this wonderful time of year.
Come to find peace.
Beginning
December 5, 2017 through December 21, 2017.
Every
Tuesday and
Thursday from
12pm to 2pm.
For more information, please call the rectory office
at 925-757-4020.
