This is the last year St. Joseph will be called St. Joseph School. Next year it will be called Tuscarawas Central Catholic Elementary School.
We attended a wonderful prayer service and ceremony for the kindergarten class and yes I cried. I was proud of Francesca but also saddened at the changes taking place at our school.
Father Bill suggested we embrace the change and know that all will be well in God's hands. Give up on trying to control things and let God move us forward in a direction that He intends.
Father Bill has been reassigned to a parish in Columbus.
The kids will start the new school year with Father Matt.
The name is changing, the uniform plaid is changing, the priest is changing.
It's a shame the school lunches aren't changing.
I wasn't keeping up with this news really. This is a big adjustment for many! I like Father Bill's suggestion tho, wish I could remember that more often.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck Father Bill and Welcome Father Matt!
