From the Desk of Mrs. Thompson

Dear SFdA Families,

Happy Monday! As we begin November, my heart is full of gratitude for this wonderful community. One of the blessings of Catholic school life is that we get to grow together in so many ways: through prayer, learning, service, and, yes, a whole lot of fall fun!

What a fabulous evening we shared at “Trunk or Treat” and Fall-O-Ween! A heartfelt thank-you to everyone who helped bring it to life. From the first ideas and planning conversations to the preparations, “decorated trunks” aka tables in the upper room (thank you for pivoting and being so flexible), activities, and helping hands throughout the evening, so many people shared their time and talents. The laughter, smiles, and joy of being together were such a gift. Whether you helped behind the scenes or right in the middle of the festivities, please know how grateful we are. We truly could not have done it without you! What a beautiful example of using the gifts God has given us to bring joy to others.

Dear San Francisco de Asis Families and Friends,

Our San Francisco de Asis Mission Statement: San Francisco de Asis Catholic School provides a culture where all can encounter the living Christ. Through the example of our patron, Saint Francis, and all the saints, we become faithful disciples. We live this by Following Christ and His Church, Acquiring Knowledge, Inspiring Daily Conversion, Taking Responsibility, and Helping Others. Through lifelong learning, we grow closer to Jesus and are guided toward Heaven.

Every day, our children learn something about Jesus through us. They see how we welcome others, respond to difficulties, speak about our faith, and care for those who need help. Today, I invite us to reflect on a shared responsibility: helping our children encounter the living Christ through the way we live.
