We were proud to host the Celtic Stomp, a night of dancing for 7th-9th graders this past Friday, in honor of our patron Saint Finbar! Thank you to all who attended!

Good friends, fruitful conversations, and holy intent is what all Chesterton academies aim for.

Chesterton famously once said, "You say grace before meals. All right. But I say grace before the concert and the opera, and grace before the play and pantomime, and grace before I open a book, and grace before sketching, painting, swimming, fencing, boxing, walking, playing, dancing and grace before I dip the pen in the ink."

In all things, let us give thanks to the Lord!

May all that we do be for God's greater glory! Let us look to Mary and the saints and imitate their love and obedience to the Lord.

At Chesterton Academy of Saint Finbar, we are blessed to attend daily Mass and nurture our students' souls with the Bread of Life.

Magnificat anima mea Dominum;
Et exultavit spiritus meus in Deo salutari meo,
Quia respexit humilitatem ancillae suae; ecce enim ex hoc beatam me dicent omnes generationes.
Quia fecit mihi magna qui potens est, et sanctum nomen ejus, Et misericordia ejus a progenie in progenies timentibus eum.
Fecit potentiam brachio suo;
Dispersit superbos mente cordis sui.
Deposuit potentes de sede, et exaltavit humiles.
Esurientes implevit bonis, et divites dimisit inanes.
Sucepit Israel, puerum suum, recordatus misericordiae suae, Sicut locutus est ad patres nostros, Abraham et semeni ejus in saecula.

Psalm 27 reminds us that God’s presence is stronger than whatever stands against us. Courage isn’t the absence of fear — it’s trust in Him.
