Reflection: Upcoming Annual Visit of Archbishop Anthony Sablan Apuron, OFM Cap., D.D.

by Mr. Marlon Bobier Vargas
Religion Teacher

How’s your weekend Spartans? How did you spend your weekend? Did you enjoy your weekend playing Xbox, Kinect, Wii, DS, PSP rather than doing advance reading for your upcoming lessons? Did you spend your whole weekend going out with your friends rather than helping your family doing household chores? Did you finish first all your school homework and projects before having time with your friends?

In our Sunday Gospel last weekend, Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” These words of Jesus in the Gospel invite us to ask ourselves about the way we value things in life. Jesus is telling us that we have to prioritize in life the things that are more important rather than the things that are least important. As students, you have the choice to use your whole weekend playing computers, going to the mall or watching movies. But you prefer to finish first all your school homework or to help your family cleaning the house before doing other things that are least important. During class discussion, you listen and participate actively rather than making noise or distracting your classmates. When submitting requirement, you prefer submitting the requirement on or before the deadline than submitting it beyond the deadline. When your teacher asks you to do seatwork, you use your time wisely by not chatting with your seatmate. These are good and concrete ways of responding to Jesus’ challenge in his Gospel.

This Wednesday, August 31, 2011, we will have an opportunity to be visited by a very important church leader of our Archdiocese. Our special guest who will be visiting our school is an example of person who lives out the challenge of Jesus to prioritize things that are more important in life. His Excellency Archbishop Anthony Sablan Apuron, the Archbishop of Archdiocese of Agana will have his annual visit in our school. He will give up his time watching TV, resting in his room and attending non-urgent meetings for our community. He will make our day special for us to meet and know him personally. At the same time, this is his chance to know and meet the wonderful students, teachers, staff, parents and administrators of Santa Barbara Catholic School. Most importantly, he will visit and bring Christ to us through the celebration of the Holy Eucharist.

Building a Learning Community in the Spirit of Charity

by Bernadette Alcantara, Director of Formation and Student Activities | Santa Barbara Catholic School

Sister Maria Rosario Gaite, RSM

The Santa Barbara Catholic School began the year right by holding a week-long faculty orientation-workshop from August 1-5, 2011.  This culminated in a Commissioning Ceremony of the Faculty and Staff in the school’s Holy Spirit Mass at the Santa Barbara Parish on the second day of school, Aug. 9, 2011.  Facilitated by Sister Maria Rosario Gaite, RSM, the school’s Vice-Principal, the faculty went through activities that helped build a spiritual and learning community in the spirit of charity, the legacy of the foundress of the Sisters of Mercy, Mother Catherine McAuley.  The teachers shared their innermost thoughts, feelings and prayers with one another regarding their own relationship with God, their journey in the teaching vocation and what inspires and moves them to persevere in forming the youth.  They also talked about the issues and challenges they face in education today: the difficulties their students and their families experience, their own relationships with one another and concerns of the world in general.  With those reflections and inputs on curriculum, cyberbullying, school law, teaching with the use of technology and spirituality from various members of the faculty and staff, they discerned collectively, formed and signed a covenant to help one another fulfill the school’s vision and mission more effectively this year.  Hopefully, inspired by this experience, indeed, the Santa Barbara Catholic School faculty will truly be a community dedicated to God’s work.

“Let charity then be our badge of honour…so that it may truly be said, there is in us but one heart and soul in God.”  -Mother Catherine McAuley, Foundress of the Sisters of Mercy
