๐ Had an amazing session with high school students yesterday, led by the incredible Miriam Hernรกndez! ๐
The goal of these sessions is to help students whose first language isnโt English to practice and learn in a fun and engaging way. Yesterday, we took advantage of the beautiful weather and went hiking in the park. ๐ฅพ๐ณ
The students had a fantastic time practicing their English while enjoying the great outdoors. It was a wonderful experience seeing them grow more confident in their language skills and build stronger connections with one another. ๐ฌ๐
Big thanks to Miriam Hernรกndez for her dedication and inspiring leadership. Looking forward to many more sessions like this! ๐โค๏ธ

The is more than just beads; it's a journey of faith, reflection, and devotion. Each prayer bead represents a moment of connection with Mary, guiding us through the life of Christ.
It's a tool for meditation, bringing peace and clarity to our hearts in times of joy, sorrow, and everything in between. Let's embrace the spiritual journey and find solace in the rosary's timeless message of love and grace. ๐๐
