Opening Mass of the 2018 School Year: Elementary


When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom he loved he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son." Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother.”

We ask for Mary to be with us as we begin a new school year and we ask that she lead us to her son, Jesus.
