O Mary!
We crown thee with blossoms today,
Queen of the Angels,
Queen of the May
May Crownings: Celebrating Mary!
Celebrate Catholic Schools Week!
Catholic schools have an irreplaceable role in the Church’s evangelizing mission. Building on the central goal of Catholic schools to form saints, Catholic schools teach and embrace the whole person, body, mind, and spirit. The fact that all members of a Catholic school community share the Christian vision of faith that Christ is the foundation of Catholic education is what unites the school as a faith-filled community.
This week, we celebrate Saint John School in a special way…
Memorial Day 2023
In keeping with tradition, a Saint John School family has sponsored the set up 1,000 American flags on the St. John the Evangelist Church lawn in honor of veterans from Wellesley and surrounding communities who have given their lives in service to our country.
We remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms we enjoy every day.
We pray that God will hold our service men and women in His strong arms, and cover them with His sheltering grace and presence.
