CATHOLIC EDUCATION WEEK 2012 WILL BE CELEBRATED FROM MAY 6 – MAY 11. This year’s theme, Catholic
Education: Walking in the Light of Christ finds its biblical source in the Gospel of John where Jesus proclaims, “I am the
Light of the World” (John 8:12) and we read in psalm 119, Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. (Psalm
119:105) During this week, schools will be celebrating the enduring gift of Catholic education with special prayers and presentations. We ask that this parish community pray for our Catholic schools, that they may continue to bear witness that they strive to walk in the Light of Christ.
