Week 5: Holy Redeemer - Thursday

Greetings from Bellingham!

This week has been an amazing and eye-opening week! Today was a day of celebration and it was a fantastic way to wrap up the week. Today's Catholic Social Teaching was about the life and dignity of the human person. We opened the day with our morning prayer and then prayed the Divine Mercy Chaplet, which was beautiful and powerful. We also watched a documentary about the migrant community and the struggles they encounter on a daily basis. After some thoughtful conversations, we went to Mass at Assumption, then returned to Sacred Heart for lunch: left-overs! We then headed out to swim and shower, and afterwards, spent the rest of the day at Sunrise. The night ended at Sacred Heart with reflection, ice cream, and a dance party! Agape has been a wonderful experience and I am sad to see the week come to an end. A big thank you to the Agape staff and our adult leaders for everything they have done to make this week possible!

Blessings,

Sara L.
