Following the Liturgy, Father Nong visited each class at Holy Cross Elementary to bless the Prayer Tables and share words of encouragement with the students. He wished them success “as they grow this year in age, wisdom, and grace,” reminding them to keep praying and learning about Jesus.

This Sunday at Our Lady of the Assumption Parish in Cold Lake our Holy Cross teachers were warmly welcomed by the parish community and received a special blessing for the year ahead. It was a meaningful way to begin the school year rooted in faith and fellowship.
We were also joined by Trustees Mary Anne Penner and Vicky Lefebvre, who celebrated alongside us in recognition of the blessing of Catholic education.

Today we celebrate the Feast of Saint Teresa of Calcutta, whose life reminds us that God’s presence can be found in simple, everyday acts. Her words, ‘Do small things with great love,’ will guide our faith journey from 2025–2029 as we live out this message in our schools and communities.
