Being...

I loved the Salesian Retreat Day for all faculty and staff during Workshop Week. What a rare opportunity to pause together – with all colleagues – to reflect upon what is at our core here at Visitation. Brother Ed Ogden did a masterful job of gently guiding us to consider how we might be… this year.

Be prayerful.
Be gentle.
Be open.
Be positive.
Be present.
Be real.
Be still.
Be healthy.
Be happy.
Be grateful.

My prayer is that our entire Visitation community will be able to center on these modes of being as we begin another faith-filled journey through a new school year.
