Junior High Watches History Being Made



Yesterday our junior high school students joined me, Msgr. Halfpenny, their teachers, and many school and RE staff in the Canfield Center to witness history being made. We prayed together a prayer for our new President before the inauguration, and then we watched the entire inauguration ceremony together. I mentioned to the students what a blessing it was to have the opportunity to watch this together with them, as I had watched the funerals of Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy at my Catholic elementary school - can it really have been so many years ago?
