PRINCIPAL’S NOTE

St Martin De Porres: “Martin’s childhood was spent in poverty. However, in spite of the poor surroundings his mother taught him the Christian virtues of modesty, humility, and charity. All his life Martin had great compassion for the poor and needy.” Our children learn the biggest lessons at home; are they learning Christian virtues from you, or are they learning non-Christian values from music, T.V., videos, or friends?
