Dear Parents and Guardians,

“Glory be to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; to God who is, who was, and who is to come.” (Revelation 1:8)

This Sunday the Church celebrated the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. Let us take some time this week to give praise and honor to God – Glory and praise for ever!

Praiseworthy and exalted above all forever,
Ms. Danielle Gonzalez
