Fantastic to welcome our new S1 young people to Sinclair Academy. We started our day with an assembly discussing our school values. Evident throughout the day that this group of young people will be committed to demonstrating our values - Aspiration, Integrity, Mercy and Service.

What a gift to wake up to a letter from Pope Francis on the role of literature in formation! We do need "a radical change of course" to promote literature in our intellectual and spiritual spheres. Books alter our minds and hearts like no other medium.🧵

From Pope Francis’ new letter, on literature. Such an enjoyable paragraph, bravely explicating a morally particularist and personalistic layer of the
Christian ethos & wisdom.

A lovely, thoughtful reflection by Pope Francis on the importance of reading literature 📖📚

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

Pope Francis addresses a letter to candidates for the priesthood, but also to pastoral workers and all Christians, to underscore the “value of reading novels and poems as part of one’s path to personal maturity.”

Enough, brothers and sisters! Enough! Do not stifle the word of the God of Peace! May peace be the future of the Holy Land, the Middle East, and the entire world. War is a defeat!

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us continue to pray for peace. May the Holy Spirit enlighten the minds of leaders and instill in them wisdom and a sense of responsibility, so they may avoid any action or word that fuels conflict. May they instead work decisively for a peaceful resolution of conflicts.

Let us #PrayTogether for victims of all wars, both present and past. May God help those who still suffer because of them. The first victims of these tragedies are always the poor, the weak, the elderly, and women and children.

I am a sucker for an in depth literary analysis of a Taylor Swift song 😍🤩

Come one, come all--it's happening again.

Join me as we analyze "How Did It End," a devastating post-mortem of a broken heart that begs the question: when is a relationship really over? The last kiss? The first night without them? Or is it the day that everyone finds out?
