QHR Graduation and Awards Ceremony

May God continue to bless His Holy Church with well formed young Catholic boys and girls.

" [Priests', teachers', and staff members'] efforts to form solid Catholic students should not be taken for granted, and are certainly not in vain ... The opportunity to go to Holy Mass almost every day, the priests in cassocks teaching and governing the students here, and Catholic teachers, all make the Academy a healthy, Catholic way to high school, steering students the right way to graduation. If a family was searching for a school that had a traditional Catholic environment enveloping it, they should choose Queen of the Holy Rosary Academy."  - from the Valedictorian speech.

Congratulations, Newly Confirmed!

"Now, when the apostles, who were in Jerusalem, had heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John. Who, when they were come, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Ghost. For he was not as yet come upon any of them: but they were only baptized in the Name of the Lord Jesus. Then they laid their hands upon them: and they received the Holy Ghost.

- Acts 8:14-17

"And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God: whereby you are sealed unto the day of redemption."  

- Ephesians 4:30

Hope

This morning at Holy Mass for First Saturday, Saint Mary's Assumption was graced with the presence of seven seminarians from Saint Thomas Aquinas Seminary in Winona, MN, among whom was our very own nephew. Seven future priests! (Click images to enlarge)

And on top of that, our boys served!

Deo Gratias!
