Fr. Doyle Community,
We're one day away from a well-deserved April Break. I am grateful for the collective hard work, patience, and dedication of our entire school community over these past five weeks. As Fr. Woolley mentioned in his homily at the school Mass this afternoon, we continue to serve the mission of our school, providing a well-rounded Catholic education for all of our students. It may currently look different than we ever expected, and it may require many of us to make new and difficult sacrifices; however, we remain steadfast in our commitment to this lofty goal.
Quarantine is the ideal time to once again enjoy a reading of Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, and I am again moved by his words:
"The world is indeed full of peril, but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater."
We are undoubtedly surrounded by much sadness in these times, but I pray that - for each of our families - Fr. Doyle School represents some small portion of what is still fair and good in this world and, despite this sadness, promotes the growth of love all the greater in these times.
Until tomorrow,
-Mr. Peloquin
