Hello St. Al Family and Friends,<\/p>\n

This week we said goodbye to May and welcome the final two weeks of our 2018-19 school year.\u00a0 It seems as though the year has flown by, but we certainly packed in a lot of learning and excitement.\u00a0 Soon we will be saying goodbye to some and getting ready to welcome others.\u00a0 Let us remember though, it is not over yet.<\/p>\n

This time of year can be a stressful time with events, testing, commitments, etc\u2026It can also be a joyous time too\u2014a time to celebrate together and a time to reflect.\u00a0 This reminds me of the Rosary.\u00a0 In my most joyous and most stressful moments I find delight and comfort in reciting the Rosary.\u00a0 Either with others or simply alone, it helps ground me; reminds me of what is really important in my life when my day seems too full, and allows me to truly rejoice during times of celebration.\u00a0 Pope Leo XIII said \u201cThe Rosary is the most excellent form of prayer and the most efficacious means of attaining eternal life. It is the remedy for all our evils, the root of all our blessings. There is no more excellent way of praying.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you are looking for peace, if you are looking for joy, if you are looking to rejoice, I encourage everyone to pray the Rosary.\u00a0 We have some free Rosaries available on the table outside the office, as well as Rosary cards.\u00a0 Feel free to check them out and help yourself.<\/p>\n

Thank you,<\/p>\n
