Words of wisdom from our own Father JC "Show Up!"

I went to a wonderful kick off party at Coach and Tina Huber's house last Friday! It was GREAT! Why? COMMUNITY! The parents of St Theresa did what they do best, they SHOWED UP, demonstrating that they care! Sunday's Reflections hit on the ways we " Show up" (read Father Chuck's reflections). We love to share our lives with others. That is the best part of St. Theresa Catholic School and community is what sets us apart from the others. It defines who we are and all that we are able to accomplish together- WE SHOW UP! We are a community that SHOWS UP! The hospitality and generosity of families who showed up last Friday in support of our school was yet again, a reminder that "We can do no great things, only small things with great love." All of these little things combined lead us to greatness! Thank you all for all that you do! Love- Father JC
