A Message of Joy and Gratitude

Dear Lake County Catholic School Network Families and Staff,

As we gather to celebrate the Nativity of our Lord, we are reminded of the profound message of hope and light that the Christmas season brings into our lives. On behalf of the Board of Directors and our Board of Members, we want to extend our warmest Christmas greetings to every member of our school communities.

Celebrating Our Shared Mission

Christmas is a time of reflection, and as we look back on this year, we are filled with immense gratitude. To our dedicated employees: thank you for your tireless commitment to nurturing both the minds and the souls of our students. Your work is a living testament to the Gospel. To our families: thank you for trusting us with your children’s education and for being the primary witnesses of faith in their lives.

In the midst of the holiday bustle, we hope you find moments of true peace. May the stable at Bethlehem remind us that God’s greatest gift comes to us in simplicity and love. It is our prayer that the light of the Christ Child shines brightly in your homes, bringing:

Peace to your hearts and minds; Joy in the company of loved ones; Hope for the new year ahead.

“For today in the city of David a savior has been born for you who is Messiah and Lord.” — Luke 2:11

We look forward to welcoming everyone back in the New Year, refreshed and inspired. 

May your Christmas be holy, happy, and safe.

Merry Christmas and God bless you all!

Sincerely,

Barb Mancari

President, Lake County Catholic School Network
