Our Family's Main Devotion

O Jesus, through the immaculate heart of Mary, I offer you my prayers, works, joys and sufferings of this day in union with the holy sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world. I offer them for all the intentions of your sacred heart: the salvation of souls, reparation for sin, the reunion of all Christians. I offer them for the intentions of our bishops and of all theapostles of prayer, and in particular for those recom mended by our Holy Father this month.

The Patron Saint of Our School

St. Thomas Aquinas
