Happy Teachers Day

Posted October 4, 2021

CSA96 recognizes and values the dedication of our current and former teachers in all corners of the world. They continue to show that despite the hard times, the world must go on and the will to learn should never stop. In this little way we would like to say thank you for all their hard work and persistence in igniting the fire of discovery and learning. They should never forget how indispensable their role is as the youth yearn for their guidance, care and knowledge. Hence, from the words of Michael Porter he once said and I quote, “The best CEOs I know are teachers, and at the core of what they teach is strategy”. Cheers to all our teachers!

MASS FOR THE FEAST DAY OF SAINTS MONICA AND AUGUSTINE

Posted Aug 26, 2021

Join us as we celebrate the feasts of two of the greatest Saints in the Catholic Church – St. Monica and St. Augustine. Both mother and son have exhibited in their lifetime a tremendous love and fidelity to God.  St. Monica with her unwavering faith in God and steadfast love for her son, never gave up praying for Augustine’s conversion. She prayed for him day and night pleading for God’s mercy to come upon her son. For so many years, Augustine led a life far from the faith that his mother taught him.  Finally, that day arrived when Augustine saw a vision in the Garden in Milan, telling him to “Take up and Read.”   In our Eucharistic celebration, we offer a special prayer for Batch 96 and parents that they will always have the grace to love, care, and nurture their children according to the ways of God. May all parents have the strength to fulfill their God-given duties especially in this time of pandemic.
