The mysterious strength which keeps us longing for the good
Each January as the calendar turns to another year, we find ourselves committing to a New Year’s resolution. In keeping with this tradition, our students were asked what their resolution was for the coming year. To this point, I thought you might enjoy reading some of the “New Year’s Resolutions” from our young BEARS:
“To be calm, take a breath and enjoy the moment.”
Lily Adkins – 5th Grade
“To learn more about Jesus.”
Princeton Engram – Pre-K 3
“To spread God’s word.”
Elisabetta Kailie – 2nd Grade
“To share my crayons with friends.”
Luke Wilder – Pre-K 4
“To love, care for and protect the earth.”
Amelia Caquelin – 6th Grade
“To say I am sorry when I hurt someone’s feelings.”
Egypt Davis – Kindergarten
“To spread joy to others.”
Anya Bronson – 1st Grade
“To be kind to everyone I meet.”
Joey D’Ambrosio – 8th Grade
“To tell my teachers that they are the best. Because they are!”
Ava Anthony – 2nd Grade
Each day, my colleagues and I feel an awe-inspiring sense of gratitude for having the opportunity to help our young students see life through a lens of faith. A lens which allows them to use their hopeful optimism to see God in the goodness which surrounds them. And as believers, our Christian faith teaches us that hope is the mysterious strength which keeps us longing for the good. So if you are seeking a school which forms leaders who use their goodness to bring the Light of Christ to everyone they encounter, then look no further than St. Agnes.
