This year, Antonia Fusco and her 6th Grade Family Faith Program Class wrote this beautiful psalm that we wished to share with the parish.

A Praise to the Almighty

Joy of the earth, Father Almighty all powerful—
You who dwell in the farthest heights.
Praise to You, Creator of beauty and light.

We glorify You, who are invincible.
Your mercy is endless,
Your love, infinite.
Bring us peace,
Rain down Your goodness.
Come be with me
So I may shine Your light on others.

Thank you, Chloe, Vikram, Annabel, Jacob and Antonia for this joyous prayer!
