SAINT PATRICKlS CHURCH P. 0. BOX 167 LARGO, FLORIDA 33540 June 1972 My dear Students: Another school year has come to a close and all of you have advanced a year closer to your goal in life. The old axiom, time flies , can be used here in this case. We must always keep in mind that the real purpose of education is to achieve maturity. Our Sisters and Lay-Teachers at St. Patrick's School are here to give all our students the best type of foundation to help to achieve this maturity and to help you to better serve God, Church and State. Day after day, year after year more of an emphasis is being placed on education. Without a good education it is very difficult to progress along the road of life. Therefore, in order to be successful in life we must have a good and wholesome education. Each of us as creatures of God have been given a certain number of talents. God expects us to use these talents to the best of our ability. If we do, then success is ours in life. Life was never meant to be easy and so you will find obstacles being placed in your way. obstacles that you must overcome, obstacles that you will overcome with the proper use of your God-given talents. I wish at this time to congratulate all those who are graduating this year from St. Patrick's School and wish them great success in the years to come. If we can be of any help to them in the future we hope that they will not hesitate to ask us. I would also at this time like to thank the Faculty of St. Patrick's School, both Sisters and Lay-Teachers, headed by our very competent Principal, Sister Mary Lucia. They are truly dedicated teachers. Sincere thanks also to the members of our Mother's Club, who have worked tirelessly for the good and progress of St. Patrick's School. May all of our Faculty and Students have a very happy and safe summer. We are looking foreward to seeing all of you in September and of welcoming our new students, especially those who will be entering the First Grade. May God Bless You. Sincerely ours n Our Lord f . 51271;v; Father n M. McCall Pastor o JMMC:mjm
