"You have received an education and been inspired
with the same kind of hope that was shown by Saint Mother Theodore Guerin.
She has shown us how to connect hope to achievement. The power of hope
can bring about change to the world's many problems. You will be the ones
to open doors of hope in old systems that seem closed and doomed to fail.
You will have the courage to go out these doors to forge the beauty of
change from the quiet beauty of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods. Obstacles and
challenges will be placed in your path, but your hope will lead you successfully
through those obstacles. Maintain your values, practice your faith and
take the Spirit of The Woods out to the world. Show others the hope of
the future through your works." |
