“Have an attitude of gratitude” is one of those catchphrases fit for bumper stickers and children’s books. Yet, for Christians, this is more than a catchphrase. It is a basic command of the Christian life. In this week's Gospel reading ten lepers were healed by Jesus. All ten turned to Jesus on faith with their request. However, after they were healed, only one of the ten returned to thank him for answering his prayer.

Congratulations to Dr. Sean McCabe, our school psychologist, on successfully completing his doctoral work. We are so proud of his accomplishments.

Congratulations to Dr. William Kaelin, a former St. Agnes Cathedral School student, who is a professor of medicine at Harvard University and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Dr. Kaelin is one of the recipients of this year’s Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for outstanding discoveries in the fields of life science and medicine! Dr. Kaelin is especially grateful to his 5th-grade teacher from St. Agnes Cathedral School, Sister John Andrew, who reported to his parents that he was not working to his potential. He said that turned him around and he has not stopped working since! Dr. Kaelin is looking forward to coming to St. Agnes in the spring to talk to the students!
