His name is John.

He was known for many things.

We focus on two of them:

1. He jumped for joy in his mother’s womb when Jesus was present.
2. He gave his life to prepare others to receive Jesus.

This is also OUR call.

We want to always recognize the presence of Jesus in everyone.

And rejoice at such a gift.

And we want to prepare the way for our students to meet Jesus so they can prepare others.

What a privilege to have our faith community named after such a man.

May we always imitate his love and courage as we strive to

Recognize

Rejoice

Prepare.
