Family Messenger March 11, 2010

God of Mercy,
You forgive us our many sins.
May we forgive one another as you forgive us.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

8th Grade High School Acceptance
This weekend, our 8th graders received their letters from various high schools. Our graduates have been admitted to the following Catholic high schools: Bellarmine-Jefferson, Bishop Alemany, Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy, Loyola, Immaculate Heart, Mayfield, Notre Dame, Providence, and St. Francis. One student was also admitted to the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts.
We continue to pray for these students and their parents as they decide which school is best for them.
