Celebrating the Feast of St. Margaret Mary
Our school community recently gathered for a beautiful Mass to celebrate the Feast of St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, a saint whose profound faith and devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus continue to inspire us. Chosen by Christ to spread the message of His boundless love, St. Margaret Mary's life was marked by hardship, yet her unwavering faith served as a reminder of God's infinite compassion. Her legacy encourages us to deepen our connection with Christ through prayer, devotion, and service to others.
The celebration was made even more special by the commissioning of our newest student Eucharistic Ministers. These students have answered the call to serve, taking on the important role of distributing the Eucharist during Mass and being spiritual leaders within our school community. Their commitment to this ministry reflects the love and service that St. Margaret Mary embodied throughout her life.
As we honored the Sacred Heart of Jesus and St. Margaret Mary's mission, we were reminded of the importance of spreading love and compassion in our daily lives. This Mass brought our community together in faith, strengthening our bond and inspiring us to follow in the footsteps of St. Margaret Mary and our newly commissioned Eucharistic Ministers.
