This glorious day can only conclude one way… with a celebration! Praising God is what we do best! We have a beautiful liturgical mountainside celebration under the stars the picturesque San Gabriel Valley lights serve as candles at our open-air cathedral. With renewed and strengthened bonds, participants are prepared to lead their school community. It also offers times to deepen existing friendships, establish new friendships and mend damaged relationships. In addition to preparing students to lead their school, this retreat provides students with an opportunity for spiritual growth, which can deepen their faith life. Many teachers, though they may not be giving a talk, make it a priority to join the retreat as a sign of love and support. Senior students, who have led the year’s powerful Kairos retreats, also facilitate this retreat. Members of the junior classes are swept away from the hustle-and-bustle of day-to-day academic life and brought to the Mater Dolorosa Retreat Center in the Sierra Madre foothills.ĭuring this intense spiritual retreat, students experience meaningful talks given by student leaders and several teachers, inspirational prayer, personal and group reflections, fun activities, and great food (their favorite Lino’s Tacos). It prepares the members of the junior class to transition into their leadership role as seniors. Taking place in May, this retreat has become a vital component in building the Valiant Spirit. My heart is broken but I still love my son.The administration, faculty and staff view our senior class as partners in the overall leadership of St. I have these things saved so maybe some day when they are older they will know this grandma did love them. At Christmas I buy an ornament and Christmas card for them both, I also buy birthday cards for them. I found out days later through someone else. Then he didn't even call me when his son was born. When he told me that she didn't want me to be at the hospital when their son was born I was in shock and disbelief. I tried to support him during this time and did the best I could to be friendly and accept her but the relationship just went south with both of them. Their relationship was very rocky for several years. My son and I always had a good relationship until he "fell in love" with the woman who would eventually become the mother of his children. He has an older sister and the last time I saw her she was 4. I have a grandson I have seen once when he was 3, he is soon to be 10.
