Wednesday Memo
September 14
"For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord,
plans to prosper you and not to harm you,
plans to give you hope and a future."
Jeremiah 29:11
Message from Sister Mary Lawrence, O.P.
We had a GREAT PANTHER PRIDE DAY last Saturday! Our sports teams played very well, and I am so proud of our coaches, Athletic Director, and faculty members who volunteered their time to make the day so successful. I also saw many of you at the Red Birds Game on Saturday afternoon. Thank you for your support and School Spirit!
We have had a very eventful and tumultuous few weeks in Memphis. Fr. Gabe Bouck, our new Associate Pastor, preached about Godβs never-failing Love on Sunday. He said that while we cannot fix our city or fix the many problems we face, God can. We must turn to Him, our Heavenly Father for comfort, strength, and for solutions to the difficulties we face. In this spirit, I will be meeting with some of our school parents to plan a Prayer Service on the front lawn of St. Paul School, inviting Church and Community leaders. More information will be coming in the next few weeks.
Please know of my prayers for you. Go Panthers!
In Christ,Sister Mary Lawrence Wright, O.P.
