Courage  
Thank You Lord for the mystery of, “Christ in you the hope of glory”. Thank You also for the wonderful examples of men and women of faith, who have been given godly courage to carry out the duties that You called them to do.

Lord I pray that in the power of the Holy Spirit You would develop in me a godly wisdom and courage, to live my Christian life as light in a darkened world, and salt to a festering sore. - whatever the cost.

Father, You have called us to reflect Your light and to tell of Your healing power. May I be enabled by Your Holy Spirit to speak out Your word of truth, in grace and love – and may I become a mirror that reflects You so completely in all I say and do, that Christ may be seen in me - to Your praise and glory,

Amen

Hi, my name is Miss Burke, and I am so excited for my first year teaching at St. Agnes Cathedral School! I completed my undergraduate studies at SUNY Cortland for Childhood Education and Special Education 1-6, and received my Masters in Literacy Education birth-6 at Adelphi University. Although it is my first year teaching at St. Agnes, this school is not unfmailiar to me. I attended St. Agnes from kindergarten through 8th grade!  I am so happy to be back in a place I consider home, to teach what I am most passionate about...READING! 


Ever since I was a kid I have loved to read. My favorite genres include mystery and fantasy novels. I am extremely grateful that I get to share my love for reading with children. I also enjoy cooking, excercising, going to the beach and spending time with friends and family. I am looking forward to a great year!
