“For those who live by faith, the cross is a treasure more valuable than gold and precious stones.”

Our zeal is always guided by charity. Everything is done with strength and gentleness.

It is God’s hand which has guided everything, and it is God whom we must thank above all.

Zeal is the great desire to make God known, loved, and served, and thus to bring knowledge of salvation to others. Activity flows from this virtue. Teachers who possess it fulfill the duties of their profession with enthusiasm, love, courage, and perseverance.

We shall always place education side by side with instruction; the mind will not be cultivated at the expense of the heart. While we prepare useful citizens for society, we shall likewise do our utmost to prepare citizens for heaven.

With eyes of faith consider the greatness of your mission and the wonderful amount of good which you can accomplish.

How we educate the mind will change with the times; how we cultivate the heart is and will remain timeless.
