June update – The Call to be More
The end of the school year is very close at hand. Just a couple of weeks more and we will be saying “goodbye” to one more school year and embarking on a new one with our own children in different grades.

Life and Death
It is not very often that we receive very good news and very bad news in the same day. For us Saturday was one of those days that we had the privilege of hearing of the birth of two new additions to our family and the loss of a father of one of our students. Continue reading “Life and Death”
Multicultural Day and One World Run 2012
Multicultural day is a much anticipated event here at RVA. The theme this year was “GO“. After a very good Spiritual Emphasis Week in which the students were challenged about taking the Gospel to all peoples we thought it would be fitting to make the theme a simple reminder that we are called to go.

One World Run
It started out being a fun little run that we were going to hold on a Sunday afternoon. We did not expect it to turn into a major event with about one hundred staff and students participating. With torrential rains threatening the weather held off long enough for us to complete the run which wasContinue reading “One World Run”
Let it Rain!
We have been experiencing a lot of rain lately. So much so that we think that rubber boots are standard wear for all occasions. It has pretty much rained every day for the past few weeks. It has been a while since we have seen rain like this at this time of year but the peopleContinue reading “Let it Rain!”
More Than Meets the Eye
No, this post is not about the “Transformers” movie even though it makes us want to break out singing the theme song – I guess that dates us back to the original cartoon. This was the phrase that was used at this years Spiritual Emphasis Week (SEW) here at RVA. The speaker encouraged the studentsContinue reading “More Than Meets the Eye”
