From Fr. Kearn's sermon opening Catholic Schools Week January 27, 2008

Catholic Schools: Light The Way

Today we are grateful to almighty God for His many blessings on our parish. We are blessed with a parish school and a wonderful principal, Sister Barbara Montague. We have this school because of the many generations of people who have gone before us.

It is the parents and grandparents and great-grandparents of today’s students who have made it possible for these fine young men and women to attend this school. This is a school where cultural diversity is lived out in honest interaction. We are a Catholic school but we share respect with families from other faith traditions. It is our racial and cultural diversity which makes us a vital force for good in our neighborhood.

The teachers, administration and the school and rectory staffs work well together to provide an excellent experience for the children. The students here at St. Cyril School learn not only academic subjects. The students are challenged to form moral values and civic attitudes which will prepare them for their future.

Through this moral, spiritual and academic formation our students can recognize that their parents and grandparents have made great sacrifices for them. These sacrifices remind us of the great price which Christ paid so that we might see the light of salvation. That light has been passed on from generation to generation.

It is up to today’s generation of students to experience the Light which is showing them the way to happiness. In the excitement of knowing the love of their ancestors, our students will realize that they can hope for a brighter future. Through the guidance of God who surrounds them, these young people, the hope of the future, will bring good news to those desperately in need of someone to light the way.
