As we enter Holy Week we commemorate Our Lord’s pascal mystery. This year our celebrations are especially moving after experiencing Holy Week in isolation this last year. Happy Palm Sunday, Hosanna to the Son of David!
Happy St. Patrick's day! St. Patrick reminds us of our need to go out in faith to bring the Gospel to all, in both hostile and peaceful environments, and show the true love of Christ.
March is traditionally dedicated to St. Joseph. In scripture, he never spoke, but his actions showed him to be a man of deep faith, commitment, and concern. Let us imitate St. Joseph on our walk with Christ and act in quiet humble service to the Lord.
I was pleased to bless Cathedral students this morning as we begin Catholic Schools Week. Let us pray for all of our students, faculty, and staff throughout the diocese.
On Martin Luther King Day let us all remember Dr. King’s call to create a society where all are treated w/ equal dignity. In our own lives we must live that out through a commitment to seeing one another as God sees us: beloved sons and daughters, made in His image & likeness.
@ubnews Just to clarify, this is referring to an incident that happened across the street from DeSales inside a house on Stadium Drive. We were informed by WW police that the situation is under control. All DeSales students are safe and the school building was secured at all times.
As teachers, staff, and students are returning to schools I want to entrust them to St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, the first American-born saint & Catholic educator. St. Elizabeth, pray for the continued success of our schools, help them to always be places of love, learning & faith.
This Christmas, in the midst of all the world's turbulence, may you experience the peace of God. Merry Christmas and God bless. https://t.co/uOw4bEi3XG
Today as we celebrate the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception we entrust our nation to our Lady, patroness of America, in prayer. "O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee."
Let us frequently repeat the traditional #Advent prayer: “Come, Lord Jesus” (Rev 22:20): before meetings, studying, work, and before making decisions, in the important moments or times of trial: Come, Lord Jesus!
As we celebrate Thanksgiving I want to express my gratitude for our priests, deacons, lay staff, teachers, school administrators, & volunteers who have kept our parishes and schools open, sharing the love and truth of Christ here in Eastern Washington. I am grateful for those 1/2
Today’s feast exalts our Lord as King of the Universe; the Gospel for the day reminds us where we can and must serve Him. Love of God and charity for those in need are inexorably linked. Let Christ reign in your hearts and may his reign be evident in your actions.
Starting on Monday, students in grades 7-12 will be learning in person via Hybrid AM/PM cohorts, and grades K-6 will be learning in person full time!
