Journey Through Holy week

 Journey Through Holy Week 2021

This week is a very special week for us here at St. Pius X Catholic School. This Holy '

Week is not intended to simply be a "walk down memory lane" with our heads. Rather,

it is an invitation to become engaged in Jesus' journey and to make connections with our

own journey in our heart, mind, and soul. How are we to live and to face our challenges as

Jesus faced his?  

Let us walk through his journey, and ask him to help us with our journey in life.

joy well Jesus walks into Jerusalem on a Donkey and people waving leaves around.
