Pope Tweets
@Pontifex
God makes his most beautiful flowers grow among
the driest stones.

Peace must be built on justice, on integral human
development, on respect for human rights, on the
protection of creation.
May 20, 2017
From the Principal
Saint Paul, through his letters, worked to build community. In so doing, the Word of
God that he was so passionate about would become flesh once again through the daily words
and deeds of every member he addressed. For Paul, the mission of the community was to
operate as one Body in Christ, in which all members work in coordination with each other, to
live as Jesus wanted us to.
At St. Peter School, the faculty and staff strive to share Paul’s message with our students and with each
other. As we near the end of another school year (and as I end my first year as Principal) we pray our efforts
linger with students throughout the summer and that the foundation of faith that is being constructed will be
strong enough to weather any storm.
Thank you for your support of the mission of St. Peter School. We hope to continue to shine as the
beacon on the hill. Andrew Malionek

Au Revoir, Fr. Francis
Congratulations to Francis D. Alvarez, S.J., who was
awarded a Ph.D. in Theology and Education by
Boston College on May 22! For the last several
years, Fr. Francis has joyfully shared his presence
with us at the 5 p.m. Mass. Several hundred attended
his final Mass and reception last Sunday. He soon
returns to his native Philippines. We are most
grateful for his generosity of time, love, and joyful
spirit. And we pray for his welfare and happiness.
