Greetings STJPII families,
As we celebrate Thanksgiving, we are reminded of how much we have to be grateful for in our school community. We are thankful for our wonderful students, dedicated staff, and supportive families who make STJPII such a special place to learn, grow, and live our faith together.
In this week’s Gospel, Matthew 22:1–14, Jesus shares the parable of the wedding feast, reminding us of God’s invitation to come together and share in His kingdom. As we reflect on this message, we are reminded to be open to God’s invitation and to respond with hearts filled with love, kindness, generosity, and gratitude. May we continue to live out our faith through the ways we care for one another and serve those in need.
A special thank you to Father Abraham for celebrating our schoolwide Thanksgiving Mass and helping us come together in prayer and gratitude. We are also so grateful to all the families who have contributed to our STJPII Thanksgiving Challenge by donating non-perishable food items. Your generosity is a beautiful example of our school community putting faith into action and sharing God’s love with others.
As we head into the Thanksgiving long weekend, we wish all our families a joyful and blessed Thanksgiving filled with love, laughter, and time with those who matter most. May we take a moment to recognize the many blessings in our lives and find ways to share those blessings with others.
Wishing you and your family a happy and blessed Thanksgiving!
Blessings,
Mrs. Morgan and Mrs. Johnson
