“O Come to Our Senior Prom”
By: Betty Martin

O Come to our Senior Prom
Remember those good old days,
The golden age of Hollywood
Will ever more be praised.
O come to our Senior Prom,
Trot out your dancing shoes,
Dust off your favorite tunes,
Remember the tuneful blues.
O come to our Senior Prom,
Just linger a little while
As we honor our treasured past
And seal it with a smile.


“The elderly are meant to be part of the social scene,
they are a part of God’s plan for the world, 
with their mission to fulfill,
their unique contribution to make.”

Saint John Paul II

Santa Teresita…Where Every Life Matters

Not So Ordinary Day

Not So Ordinary Day

It was an ordinary morning that was not so ordinary. This is what I mean … I woke up with the same weekday routine of getting out of bed, morning prayers and the usual self-talk that if nothing else went right today, at least I had made it thus far without a glitch.

Therese, you taught us to put all of our confidence in our Loving Father. Thanks for making this so clear and tangible on your special day. Please keep sending our way a shower of roses from heaven.
