“Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them;
for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
Matthew 19, 14
At St. Mary’s, we believe that each student:
- is created in the image of God
- is unique and irreplaceable
- has a purpose according to God’s will
- is more than a mind and has spiritual and emotional needs that must be addressed
- will find his or her true identity by listening to and obeying Christ
- has the potential to bring the light of the gospel to dark places
- has a strong need for validation and affirmation
- has been blessed with valuable gifts that need to be developed
- needs to grow in awareness of his or her own potential and strength
