Closing Reflection

Today marks a meaningful pause in our school year. Before we conclude, let us look back at that first step into St. Mary’s Chapel last August. Whether this is your first year or your last, reflect on your growth, your challenges, and your transformation.

Remember the individuals who supported you. Though today we name just a few, each of you is seen and valued. Our community thrives not in isolation, but through collaboration and shared purpose.

Blessing

Holy One of Infinite Creativity,
Bless our hearts so that we might be considerate
Bless our minds so that we might be thoughtful
Bless our bodies so that we might be respectful
Bless our spirits, so that by our living, we give light and life to others.
