St. Viator Parish School
Viator Voice: December 8, 2023
As we process the events that took place at UNLV earlier this week, we continue to pray for all those at UNLV who have been affected by this act of violence. We pray for our own school community, many of whom have a personal connection to UNLV. We ask for God to hear our prayers and help our entire Las Vegas community heal in the days ahead.
THE SECOND WEEK OF ADVENT
The days are growing darker and colder. In this second week of Advent, we give thanks for two candles that push back the darkness and remind us that the Light of the world is coming.
