"So we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually parts of one another."

Romans 12:5

In this new school year, we are reminded of St. Paul's words, "We Are the Body of Christ." As members of Christ's body, we will  encounter many opportunities for growth, spiritually, physically, and academically. In our growth, we will learn more about the ways Christ calls us to serve. The Corporal Works of Mercy, which we will incorporate into our school this year, teach us the ways in which we are to serve as Christ's body. In Matthew's gospel, we hear Christ say, "whatsoever you do for the least of my people, you do unto me." May this year hone the talents and gifts that infuse our lives as we work to build up the Body of Christ.
