ICA Fourth Graders Visit San Juan Capistrano and San Gabriel Missions

San Juan Capistrano Mission

"This is an exciting time for the fourth grade students as they continue to learn about the missions and the contributions Fray Junipero Serra made to the state of California and the Catholic Church. They will soon visit San Juan Capistrano as well as San Gabriel Mission. The students will be given the opportunity to enter the Junipero Serra Essay Contest as they write about the mission they are learning about."
So wrote Principal Norma Moreno of the ICA Catholic School, in Volume 6, no. 5 of The ICA Connection, Connecting School to Home.

The motto appearing in that edition of The ICA Connection states:  "We give You glory, thanks and praise. Bless our work and guide our ways."  It is only in a private Catholic school that children can receive such open acknowledgement of God, and openly seek God's blessing.  What a joy that in Monrovia parents seeking that type of spiritual formation for their children have an outstanding Catholic school with two magnificent campuses.
