Holy Spirit Catholic School Mission
We are a Catholic community committed to developing educational opportunities in the context of Gospel values, where students' gifts and talents are celebrated and nurtured
through lifelong spiritual and personal experiences.
Happy Thanksgiving!
On October 14th, we celebrate Thanksgiving Day, a day of gratitude. Thomas Merton once said, “To be grateful is to recognize the love of God in everything.” How do we cultivate a genuine sense of heartfelt gratitude in our lives? Gratitude is more than an emotion. It’s a way of life.
In our faith journey, we are called to recognize that all good things come from God, and as we root ourselves in Christ, our hearts naturally turn toward thankfulness. This Thanksgiving, let us reflect on how being deeply connected to Christ helps us recognize His presence in our daily blessings. Whether in moments of joy or challenge, Christ is the foundation that sustains us. Let’s take this opportunity to deepen our family’s faith, expressing gratitude for His grace and love, which guides us each day.
Wishing you and your family a blessed Thanksgiving, filled with love, gratitude, and the peace of Christ.
