Our faith theme celebrates the unique mission and identity of our Catholic school division and offers opportunities to inspire and engage students, families, and staff, animating our ongoing journey of faith with excitement, hope, and joy. It provides a focus for faith learning, spiritual development, community building, and service.
Greater St. Albert Catholic Schools’ three-year faith theme for 2023-2026 is: Growing in the Trinity: Love, Mercy & Grace
“Growing in the Trinity” provides a framework within which we meditate on the mystery of the Trinity, and grow in our understanding of, and relationship with each person of the Holy Trinity. As we focus on the love of the Father, the mercy of the Son, and the action of the Spirit (who pours grace into our hearts), we see ourselves at the center, growing and thriving.
2024-25 Growing in Mercy
This year, we focus on "Growing in Mercy, with the Son" as part of our three-year journey of spiritual growth. Our goal is to help students, parents, and staff know, model, and witness Jesus Christ through fostering a culture of evangelization, faith formation, and vocation within our schools.
"30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. 32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." (Ephesians 4:30-32)
2023-24 Growing in Love
With the Father, our Creator, who is the origin of love, we are inspired to share that love with one another. God is “Father”, which means I am a child of God; we are ALL called by name to grow in love toward one another (sub-themes: chosen, inclusivity, belonging, universality of God’s love).
“See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are.” (1 John 3:1)
