I’d like to pass along some good news this week. This is something of which we, as a parish
community, can be very proud. As you may know, schools are monitored and accredited by
official educational organizations in our country in order to assure the overall quality of
education. Schools are usually held up for scrutiny and review at least every six years.
Educational accreditation is a type of quality assurance process under which services and
operations of educational institutions or programs are evaluated by an external body to
determine if applicable standards are met. If standards are met, accredited status is granted by
the appropriate agency.
In most countries in the world, the function of educational accreditation is conducted by a government
organization, such as a ministry of education. In the United States, however, a quality assurance process exists that
is independent of government and performed by private non-profit organizations.
One such accrediting
organization is the Western Catholic Education Association. The WCEA is an educational accreditation agency
for Roman Catholic schools in part of the United States. It is based in Fullerton, California.
Our Lady of Las Vegas School has just gone through the rigorous process of accreditation conducted by the
Western Catholic Education Association. The results of the WCEA evaluation were very positive and Our Lady of
Las Vegas School was granted accreditation for the maximum time of six years.
Congratulations to Mrs. Phyllis Joyce, our principal, Mrs. Monica Futryk, our assistant principal, our faculty,
staff, volunteers, parents and students. Together, you have all contributed in making Our Lady of Las Vegas
school the fine and quality institution that it is. We are so very proud of our school and very proud of all of you!
May God continue to bless us, and may our dear and Blessed Mother, who is the patroness of our school, keep
watch over us always.
Congratulations are also in order to Fr. Wieslaw Berdowicz, our parochial vicar. As
you may know, Fr. Wieslaw is a native of Poland. As a priest of the Society of Christ, he
came to the United States in 2003. This Saturday, March 14, Fr. Wieslaw took the oath
of citizenship and is now officially an American citizen. We extend our best wishes and
congratulations to our new American, Fr. Wieslaw!
The Lenten season is flying by quickly. Today, we are already observing the Fourth Sunday of Lent. In just two
weeks we will observe Palm Sunday and the beginning of Holy Week. Three weeks from this Sunday we will
celebrate Easter. I hope that everyone is using this special time of grace that Lent gives to us to prepare ourselves
to experience in greater depth the celebration of the Pascal Mystery; the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus
Christ.
It is for no other greater reason that Jesus came into this world, than to show us how much God loves us. God’s
love for us is so great that He would endure all the abuse and cruelty that the world could dish out, accept it and
still come back to us with love and forgiveness. The outstretched arms of Jesus on the cross are the power sign of
God’s loving embrace of the world. God has forgiven us and will continue to forgive us. He does, however, want
us to appreciate this gift and see in His forgiveness the open opportunity to free ourselves from our sins and our
attachment to them.
God knows that we struggle with temptation, and that we continuously give into them. All God desires is that we
do our best in the face of temptation. His forgiveness is His reassurance that nothing, not even our sins, will ever
stop Him from loving us. His forgiveness is His reassurance that we are never lost in sin, and that we can be lifted
up out of our sins and defeat them.
Fr. Gerry

ACT of CONTRITION -

Contrition, expressing sorrow for your sins and resolving to sin no more.
O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you, and I detest all my sins, because I
dread the loss of heaven and the pains of hell; but most of all because they offend you, my
God, who are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of your
grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen
