March’s Virtue: Forgiveness
Last Friday, our 2nd Grade students presented March’s virtue, Forgiveness. Recounting how special it was to receive God’s forgiveness during their First Confession last month, they reminded our Sparks how important it is to forgive friends, family, and ourselves.
This month’s Virtue Vista celebrates Imaculee Ilibagiza as our Hero of the Month. Imaculee, a survivor of Rwandan genocide, turned to prayer during her darkest hours to drown out the anger and resentment around her. More information about her brave path to forgiveness can be found in the Virtue Vista HERE.
