FST Community News—Aug. 26-31

Peace and all good!

“Our spiritual life is a life in which we wait, actively present to the moment, expecting that new things will happen to us, new things that are far beyond our own imagination or prediction” – Henri Nouwen

We enter a new school year refreshed by our time of rest, “expecting that new things will happen to us.”  Whether you are a returning or new student (FST’s incoming traditional students above), your presence within the confines of Coronado Hall or online platforms will enrich the life of our growing community. Many blessings and peace to you as you enter this journey.
