Dear St. Francis Xavier Families:

July 9 was such a sad day for the Archdiocese of New York.  Twenty of our treasured Catholic schools will not reopen.  We are heartbroken.  Our St. Francis Xavier School community is praying for those school communities who are negatively impacted by this devastating news.  God bless you and your families!

Strength and Guidance Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank you for your faithfulness throughout the generations.
Your word says that, although people plan their course in their hearts,
it is you who establishes our steps.
Give us strength and guidance for everything that lies before us.
Whatever we do today,
your loving eye is on us, 
and you have promised to guide us.
Help us to fix our eyes on you as we run the race of life.
Help us to walk by faith and not by sight.
Strengthen us through your Holy Spirit.
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. 
Amen.

Please make an appointment with your child's doctor in July or early August to take care of this important back-to-school task. Thank you for your cooperation with this urgent matter.
