Thursday was the last day for our Brazilian guests to be with us at school. It was also the Feast of St. Ursula and the day when we celebrated the life of our beloved Father Deeves. As you can imagine, the day was filled with activity and emotion. First, we had a beautiful school Mass where our Brazilian guests participated by taking up the gifts during the offertory. After the Mass, the whole school processed out to the Statue of the Sacred Heart where we all left flowers in honor of Father Deeves. It made us very happy that the students from Piedade could be with us on such a special day in the history of our school and of the Ursulines as Thursday also marked the 475th year of the Ursuline order.We also had a special surprise for the students in the afternoon. They were invited to Mr. Thompson's Printmaking class where they printed T-shirts in honor of the 475th year of the Ursulines. They each received a T-Shirt as a farewell gift from Ursuline Academy of Dallas!
