“ Built on the Rock”
28 May 2025 ~ Week 40
Dear Sacred Heart Community,
This year has been filled with challenges ~ the kind that test our patience, our faith, and our commitment. But challenges, as we know, are God’s invitations to grow. They shape us, stretch us, and strengthen our resolve. Growth never comes from comfort. It comes when we choose to walk the harder road, trusting that Christ walks with us.
Jesus reminded us of this in the Parable of the Wise and Foolish Builders (Matthew 7:24–27):
"Everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock."
Storms came. Winds howled. But the house stood firm… because it was built on a foundation of faith. Sacred Heart Area School is our house, and Christ is our rock. We may face storms, but we do not face them alone ~ and we do not fall when our foundation is strong.
Last Sunday’s Gospel (John 14:23–29) reminded us of Jesus’ promise:
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you.
Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid.”
These words are for all of us. Christ has not called us to fear, but to faith. He has not promised us ease, but peace. He has not abandoned us in our mission.
He is with us, always.
Sacred Heart Area School is a place of promise and potential. Our children are worth every effort, every ounce of faith, and every bold step forward. This school ~ our school ~ is worth fighting for.
Our faculty and staff are committed. We have prayed, planned, worked, and built a foundation rooted in Christ. Now, we invite our families and parish community to stand with us. We cannot do this alone. Together, we can rise to meet the challenge and fulfill the great mission before us ~ to form hearts, minds, and souls in Christ.
Let us finish strong. Let us walk together in peace and courage. And let us remember: when we build on Christ, we build something that will last.
With blessings for peace, strength, and unity,
Principal Pèrez
