Growing in gratitude


 Thanksgiving is only two days from now and our hearts are overflowing with gratitude as we prepare to celebrate this holiday. Our students are off all week as many go away for Thanksgiving. Here, we invite all the RSCJs is the area for Mass and a great thanksgiving dinner. 

I think we all have much to be thankful for this year. We have survived COVID! We are excited about the synodality that is blooming in our church all over the world as we prepare for the first of two sessions of synods that will help us to change what needs to be changed and deepen our faith. I know that it is hard to be thankful when we think of war, refugees, the unfair treatment of migrant workers, blacks, and so many others. Still, God is present to each of us and He can do all things and He loves us and that is reason to give thanks.
