"Where there is great love there are always miracles. One might almost say that an apparition is human vision corrected by divine love... The Miracles of the Church seem to me to rest not so much upon faces or voices or healing power, but upon our perceptions being made finer, so that for a moment our eyes can see and our ears can hear what is there about us always."
This beautiful passage from Willa Cather's Death Comes for the Archbishop seems particularly fitting for the Holy Week that lies head of us. When we face great trials & tribulations as we currently do, it is helpful to be reminded that little miracles exist everywhere. We will not be together for the Easter celebration this year, and while this is difficult to accept, it does not mean this time cannot be filled with many blessings and perhaps even a few miracles.
As Bishop Latour suggests, "where there is great love there are always miracles," and there is certainly great love at Fr. Doyle School. It is evident every day in the interactions between students, staff, parents, and families, and in the love we share for the content, for learning itself, and for one another.
Have a great afternoon & evening.
Until tomorrow,
-Mr. Peloquin
