At least, I do. At almost any given time, we “half expect” to be informed that something needs to be fixed, replaced, dug up, walled in, etc. which means only one thing – it is going to cost us.
Our recent need for the replacement of our second air conditioner unit that gave way and to resurface our parking lot could have been a real nightmare for me. However, when I decided to “eat humble pie” and beg for your help – you didn’t make it difficult for me.
It is always a “learning curve” for me with these 2 lessons: 1) the Lord says, “Fr. Ricky, you of little faith!” and 2) While you have faith in God, have faith in your parishioners, too.
These are two very important lessons that I continue to learn.
Once again and again, I say “THANK YOU” from the bottom of my heart.

ADMITTEDLY, I AM PASSIONATE FOR CATHOLIC SCHOOL EDUCATION!
It seems to me that I have found another passion for Catholic School education. I see it as an opportunity to truly evangelize the coming generations by giving them a chance to get to know God and learn from HIM how it is to be a decent HUMAN BEING. If we would like to give the world a brighter future, we need to start with ourselves by putting more emphasis on raising our children to be the responsible, compassionate, grateful, and gentle people. I urge you to join me in this “PASSION for our school!” Let’s support our school by finding out what it needs!
