“Let us not grow tired of doing good, for in due time we shall reap our harvest, if we do not give up.”  Galatians 6:9

With the excitement of the Winter Olympics over the past few weeks, I have been thinking a lot about practice. Imagine the dedication it takes not only to reach the Olympics, but to stand on the podium with a medal. Just weeks ago, we also watched the Super Bowl, where athletes and musicians took the field and stage. Their performance may look effortless, but they are built on years of discipline, repetition, setbacks, and perseverance. What a powerful reminder that being good at anything takes practice. On a much smaller scale here at St. Catherine of Siena School, we see this truth lived out every day. Our mission calls students to become the best version of themselves, but that growth does not happen overnight. It happens through practice. Through mistakes. Through trying again. I am so proud with how our preschool students have learned how to do so many things like walking in the hall, cleaning up after they eat lunch, and sharing with each other. That takes practice. I am proud of how our sports teams and academic teams have used failure as an impetus for success. That takes practice. I am proud of how students choose to stay after school to receive tutoring from a teacher who graciously stays to help. That takes practice. I am most proud of how our junior high students take it upon themselves to pray the Angelus even when the adult on duty has been taken aside to deal with a situation. That takes practice. Especially during this Lenten season, let us practice forgiveness, compassion, patience, and kindness. When we love consistently, it becomes part of who we are and isn’t that why we are here?
