“He is risen.” Matthew 28:6 Easter is the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus from the tomb on the third day after his crucifixion. Easter is the fulfilled prophecy of the Messiah who would be persecuted, die for our sins, and rise on the third day (Isaiah 53). Remembering the resurrection of Jesus is a way to renew daily hope for each of us, and an important reminder that no matter what we go through, we can overcome it!! Happy Easter from our St. Luke’s family to yours. May this Easter break bring you a renewed hope and joy for all life has to offer! #happyeaster #heisrisen #hope #faith #joy #love #thegreatestoftheseislove #easterblessings #overcome #rise #blessed

@stlukesoutreach.ctr students from our High River campus got a chance to tour St. Francis de Sales church today. Fr. Marius was candid and informative and really welcoming. He explained a little about the church, the altar, the relic, and he of course showed off his one of a kind motorcycle! High River is very lucky. #stlukes #studentlife #fieldtrip #stfrancisdesales #parishpriest #popejohnpaulii #motorcyclesofinstagram #studentsofinstagram

Fr. Marius stopped by our campus today. His motorcycle from @orangecountychoppers is truly a sight to see! We are blessed to have such an incredible man to guide us! Thanks for the visit. #stlukes #motorcycle #custommade #priestlife

Mr. Sinclair is spreading his passion for fly fishing to our High River campus today. “And he sayeth unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Matthew 4:19 #lifeskils #stlukes #stlukeskidsarethebestkids #teachamantofishfeedhimforalifetime #teachersofinstagram

Students at our campus in Okotoks had the pleasure of learning how to tie flies for fly fishing. Eris and Dreydin are learning about one of Mr. Sinclair’s deepest passions, and they are practicing a skill that we hope they will get to use many times in their life! “Fishing is not an escape from life, but often a deeper immersion into it.” – Harry Middleton #letsgofishing #teachamantofish #lifelessons #fishingislife

The students at St. Luke’s CTR in High River had a real treat this morning! Jim Thompson came in to share his incredible knowledge and passion about insects as a food source. The students learned a lot about the misconceptions around insects, nutritional information, cultures that eat insects regularly and some interesting “random facts”! They also got to try grasshoppers, ants, meal worms, wasps, crickets and more!! It started out like @fearfactor but it ended up being a lot of fun! We learned that we have nothing to fear at all!! Jim, thank you for your time and passion!! We loved every minute!! #insects #education #fearfactor #eatit #stlukes #ourkidsarethebestkids #schoolisfun

Central Office staff were all smiles this morning as they prepared pancakes for staff at the Catholic Education Center, in addition to staff and students at St. Luke's Outreach. Today is popularly known as Shrove Tuesday. It is also frequently known as Pancake Tuesday, Fat Tuesday, or by its Latin name, Mardi Gras, which when translated from the French also means “Fat Tuesday.” It is the name “Shrove” that shows its religious origins. Shrove is the past tense of the English verb “Shrive” which means to obtain absolution for one’s sins by way of confession and by doing penance. Dating back to 1000 AD, over the years Shrove Tuesday not only became a day for confession, but a time for Catholics to feast on eggs, sugar and dairy which are traditionally restricted during the Lenten fast (40 days leading up to Easter). #IBelieveinCatholicEd
