Excerpt from letter dated January, 19, 2012 – Office of the Archbishop of Cincinnati
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
As we celebrate Catholic Schools Week, I am filled with gratitude for the hard work and dedication of our teachers, administrators, and staff members. Without their efforts, our schools could not be successful. Likewise, I am thankful for the many benefactors and volunteers who support our schools. Finally, I am deeply grateful for the parents and students within our schools; I thank you for your trust as we educate the next generation in the Catholic faith…
Our Catholic schools are an essential part of the ministry of our Church.
May God continue to bless our schools in abundance, and provide us with a vibrant and hopeful future.
Sincerely Yours in Christ,
Archbishop Dennis M. Schnurr

| Pope Benedict XVI - General Audience |
|
BENEDICT XVI
GENERAL AUDIENCE
Paul VI Audience Hall
Wednesday, 1 February 2012
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
In our continuing catechesis on Christian prayer, we now turn to the prayer of Jesus in Gethsemane, the Garden of Olives, following the Last Supper. As the Lord prepares to face his death, he prays alone, as the eternal Son in communion with the Father. Yet he also desires the company of Peter, James and John; their presence is an invitation to every disciple to draw near to Jesus along the way of the Cross. Christ’s prayer reveals his human fear and anguish in the face of death, and at the same time shows his complete obedience to the will of the Father. His words, “not what I want, but what you want” (Mk 14:36), teach us that only in complete abandonment to God’s will do we attain the full measure of our humanity. In Christ’s “yes” to the Father, Adam’s sin is redeemed and humanity attains true freedom, the freedom of the children of God. May our contemplation of the Lord’s prayer in Gethsemane help us better to discern God’s will for us and for our lives, and sustain our daily petition that his will be done, “on earth as it is in heaven”.

| IHM Twinning Relationship – Featured in The Catholic Register |
Twinning Relationships Enhance Concept of Mission
by Eileen Connelly OSU
As of this past June, 159 adults and youth from IHM have visited the center, said Sue Keefe, an IHM parishioner who chairs the twinning relationship. Several visitors from the center have also traveled to the Cincinnati area each year. The parish supports the center through activities such as an annual garage sale, student sponsorships and the collection of shoes and backpacks for children there by students from area Catholic schools.
The true meaning of the relationship, though, lies in what the visitors from IHM have learned from their twinning partners a world away. “They have such faith in God and such hope,” said Keefe. “It always amazes people when we go to visit that they share their faith so willingly.”
