THIRD SUNDAY OF LENT WWW.RCCHOUSTON.ORG It seems that everyday I come to work I have a reason to smile. Perhaps it is because of the wonderful people that make up our teaching and support staff, or maybe it is because we start everyday off with prayer, thanking God for each other, our teachers, and our families. It could be that I am emboldened in my work because the first things students yell when we start our day is, “God is good, all the time! All the time, God is good!” All of these things make me smile. But really, it is seeing our school community happy to be with each other in Christian fraternity that makes me smile. It is seeing students express their love for one another by helping each other in class and by being kind to one another when the other is feeling sad. It makes me smile when the students scream, “Amen!” after prayer, in joyful glee, as they laugh and giggle, safe and secure within the walls of a faith-based school. This is what makes all of us smile when we come to work at Resurrection Catholic School. Come by the School Office and see what everyone is smiling about, and make an Admissions Appointment today! Blessings, Johnathon Calvin Aylor, M.Ed Interim Principal Resurrection Catholic School MARCH 23, 20 1 4 Pareciera que todos los días que vengo a trabajar tengo una razón para sonreír. Tal vez sea debido a las maravillosas personas que componen a nuestro personal como los maestros y el personal de apoyo, o tal vez es porque empezamos cada día con oración, dando gracias a Dios por cada uno de nosotros, nuestros maestros y nuestras familias. Podría ser que estoy envalentonado en mi trabajo debido a que los estudiantes gritan al comienzo de nuestro día, "Dios es bueno, todo el tiempo! Todo el tiempo, Dios es bueno!" Todas estas cosas me hacen sonreír. Pero en realidad, es ver a nuestra comunidad escolar feliz de estar con los demás en la fraternidad cristiana que me hace sonreír. Ver a los estudiantes expresando su amor el uno al otro apoyando a los demás en la clase y por ser amables unos con otros, como cuando un compañero se siente triste. Me hace sonreír cuando los estudiantes gritan, "¡Amén!" Después de la oración, en gozosa alegría, como ríen y se carcajean, a salvos y seguros dentro de las paredes de una escuela basada en la fe. Esto es lo que hace que todos nos sonriamos cuando venimos a trabajar en la Escuela Católica de Resurrección. Venga por la Oficina de la Escuela y vean de lo que todo el mundo está sonriendo, y haga una cita de Admisiones!
