We are thankful for the generosity of many donors to offer this opportunity to NEW families that enroll during Lent! ------------------------- Lent holds profound significance in Catholic education, serving as a pivotal period for spiritual development and moral formation among students. This season, which lasts for 40 days leading up to Easter, is characterized by three core practices: prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. Each of these elements plays a crucial role in shaping the spiritual lives of students and fostering a deeper understanding of their faith. Prayerfully consider sending your children to St. Anthony Cathedral Basilica school and become a part of the renewal!

"In the beginning, O God, you made heaven and earth in your Word, in your Son, in your Power, in your Wisdom, in your Truth, speaking in a wondrous way, and working in a wondrous way . . . “How great are your works, O Lord, you have made all things in wisdom!” (Ps 103:24). That wisdom is the beginning, and in that beginning you have made heaven and earth." - St. Augustine
