Dear Parents,

Bishop Baker recently instructed our schools to post the "Spiritual and Corporal Works of Mercy" in all classrooms.  We have these beautiful posters in each of our rooms, and we frequently reflect on them in our school discussions.  

During this Year of Mercy, let us continue to "Face Mercy" by learning and practicing the Works of Mercy in our school, and in our homes.

Sincerely,

Nathan Wright
