Dear parents/guardians of our children at Maris Stella Kindergarten,
Peace and Goodness be with you!
The past few weeks have been strenuous for all of us. Yet, we can all sense that the worst have yet to come. Our anxiety level no doubt is rising as we hear the development of Covid-19 situation around the world from official sources. Though the future is unforeseeable, our present is what makes the future. Therefore, let us set our anxieties aside. Let us focus our energy to do what we can to help those in the front-line, who are sacrificing their lives to keep us safe at this very moment. This is the time when each of us is required by Love to rise above our individual-selves and do what we can and right for the good of the other. Do not let our anxieties and fears divide us. >> Click here to read the full letter <<

“Prayer for a Pandemic”
by Dr Cameron Bellm of Seattle, Washington
by Dr Cameron Bellm of Seattle, Washington
May we who are merely inconvenienced
Remember those whose lives are at stake.
May we who have no risk factors
Remember those most vulnerable.
May we who have the luxury of working from home
Remember those who must choose between preserving their health or making their rent.
May we who have the flexibility to care for our children when their schools close
Remember those who have no options.
May we who have had to cancel our trips
Remember those that have no safe place to go.
May we who are losing our margin money in the tumult of the economic market
Remember those who have no margin at all.
May we who settle in for a quarantine at home
Remember those who have no home.
As fear grips our country,
Let us choose love.
During this time when we cannot physically wrap our arms around each other
Let us yet find ways to be the loving embrace of God to our neighbors.
Amen.
