Summer Knights is off to a fabulous start.😎🌞 Campers of all ages had big adventures this week...

📚4K paid a visit to the Middle Georgia Regional Library, which has a rich history. Its awesome Children's Room has been around since 1927!

📖Kindergarten enjoyed Story Time at Bear’s Books, downtown Macon's beloved independent bookstore and literary haven.

⛰Grades 2-5 entered history at the Ocmulgee Mounds The Georgia Conservancy, a prehistoric site occupied by various indigenous groups across thousands of years. These mound formations date back to around 900 AD!

"The life of the body is the soul. The life of the soul is Christ." —St. Anthony of Padua🕊🙏

Mary, teach us to trust and to love with undivided hearts, completely united with God's will. Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us.💙✝️

💙O most holy heart of Jesus,
fountain of every blessing, I adore you,
I love you, and with lively sorrow for my sins
I offer you this poor heart of mine.
Make me humble, patient, pure,
and wholly obedient to your will.
Grant, Good Jesus,
that I may live in you and for you.💙

"Spending time with our St. Joseph’s students is my singular joy and so often the highlight of my day."🕊

Fr. John's words are fresh on our mind as we consider the gift that it is to steward the next generation of God's children.🙏💙 As he says about our students, "their gift for wonder, the details they notice, and their countless questions fill me with hope for our world."

Fr. John reminds us that our mission is "informed by our faith in Jesus Christ; and within this context, there is no task more important than nurturing and educating the young minds and hearts of the children entrusted to our care."

We are so blessed to have priests like him to lead our community in faith and service.✝️
