It is hard to believe that summer ends in less than two weeks. Students are back in school, enjoying their surroundings, making new friends, and taking that next step in a journey that will, pray God, lead to great accomplishments. We will learn about the classes, the faculty, the food, and the fun that the start of a new academic year brings each year to our young people. But will we ask the most important question: How are our loved ones doing spiritually? Parents, you will continue to play a critical role, whether your sons or daughters attend a school across town or a college across the country. Impart upon your children the willingness to stay strong, courageous, and steadfast when their faith may not by embraced, or perhaps even rejected by others. Be their guide and support!
