Sister & Students Bring Jesus’ Story to Life
Sister Carol Ann Papp’s eighth-grade Religion class at Northside Catholic Assumption Academy in Pittsburgh, Pa., moved some parishioners of St. Cyril of Alexandria Church to tears on April 8 with their presentation of Living Stations of the Cross. “They should make a movie of this!” exclaimed one third-grader in the audience. Another parishioner took time to send an endearing letter of thanks for the “most inspirational and spiritual” performance he’s seen. He shared that, in all the years of seeing the Living Stations, this year’s music, lighting and moving delivery by the students most impressed him.
