Going back to school is not only for St. Francis but also for everyone, everywhere as we see students going back to school, whether elemen- tary school, middle school, high school or college. In a way it is a new beginning as we undertake a new school year. Teachers meeting new students and parents, students meeting new teachers, new classmates, everything is new all around. As I reflect on the new school year beginning, it takes me back to my own days in school, whether as a child or an adult going back to college or seminary each fall. I recall there was that sense of being uneasy, of being a bit scared of not knowing what to expect, what my teachers or professors would be like. Yet there was a sense of being excited because I was starting something new, something different. Especially in seminary, for each year was one more year closer to ordination. Yet, I recall that even in the midst of starting something new, there was still a sense of resistance of going into the unknown, into something new. Thinking about the going into the unknown led me to think about how much our students and teachers need our prayers as they embark into a new academic year, that while as exciting as it might be to start, there is still that sense of hesitance, of stepping into the unknown. Hence, my invitation to you is to take a few moments this week and say a prayer for both our educators and our students, especially those starting a new school or going off to college for the first time. Let us pray that this new school year will be for all of our students, teachers and administrators a good one, one that produces abundant fruit. With a special prayer for all those going back to school, stu- dents, teachers, and administrators. May this year be one filled with blessings for each of you. ~Fr. Efrain

De Regreso a la Escuela

Este lunes en la mañana nuestros estudiantes regresan a clase. Lo cual significa que cada rincón de nuestras instalaciones parroquiales habrá vida con la presencia, cada día, de nuestros estudiantes, padres de familia y maestras. El regreso a la escuela se encuentra dondequiera alrededor de nosotros, sea nivel pri-maria, secundaria, preparatoria, colegio o universidad. Nos muestra que nos encontramos en el inicio de un nuevo año es-colar. Las maestras se reúnen con sus nuevos estudiantes y com-pañeros de clase. Todo es nuevo alrededor de ellos.

Y ahora que reflexiono sobre el inicio de un nuevo año escolar, me lleva a recordar mis propios días de escuela, como un niño regresando a la escuela, y como un adulto regresando, cada otoño, al colegio o al seminario. Recuerdo lo nervioso que me encontraba, o el temor que me envolvía al no saber lo que me esperaba, o cómo serían mis maestros o profesores. También existía un ambiente emocional de comenzar algo nue-vo, algo diferente, especialmente en el seminario. Por cada año en el seminario significaba un año menos para ser ordenado. Recuerdo aun en el ambiente de empezar algo nuevo que había cierta oposición de caminar hacia lo desconocido.

Estos pensamientos de ir hacia lo desconocido me llevan a reflexionar sobre la necesidad de nuestros maestros y estudiantes de nuestras oraciones, ahora que inician un nuevo año académico. Y aunque es emocionante empezar algo nuevo siempre hay cierto titubeo caminar sobre lo desconocido.

Los invito a que tomen unos momentos esta semana para hacer oración tanto por nuestros educadores como por nuestros estudiantes, especialmente por aquellos que inician la escuela o el colegio por primera vez Oremos para que este nue-vo año escolar sea muy bueno y productivo para todos nues-tros estudiantes, maestros y personal administrativo.

Con una oración especial para todos aquellos que re-gresan a la escuela, estudiantes, personal docente, administrativo y de apoyo. Que este año sea lleno de bendiciones para cada uno de ustedes.

~Padre Efrain
