Conversations From Saint Olaf Catholic school

Inspired by HOMILY OF HIS HOLINESS POPE FRANCIS St Peter’s Basilica Sunday, 1st January 2023.

I recently spoke with Gary Green, principal of Saint Vincent De Paul Catholic Parish School in Utah. Green has dedicated his life to teaching students about the importance of cultural and environmental awareness. We discussed the importance of understanding the impact of climate change and how it's affecting our daily lives in Catholic Schools.

Join us for a conversation with Dr. Galey Colosimo about a new bill for this upcoming legislative session centered on placing student educational choice in the hands of the parents and partnering with public school educators. 

In this episode, we have a conversation with Nikki Ward, Associate Superintendent of Catholic Schools for the Diocese of Salt Lake City. Join us as Nikki shares her background in education and her vision for our Catholic Schools in the 2022-2023 school year. 

We are excited to announce that Saint Olaf Catholic Parish School is partnering with Hallow, the #1 Catholic App in the world. Saint Olaf Catholic School has just become the first Catholic school in Utah to partner with Hallow. We are excited to offer this opportunity to enrich the faith lives of our students, staff, and families. A few words from Hallow.com;

"Hallow is an excellent resource for people searching for deeper spiritual lives, especially the younger generation of Catholics today. It helps make clear that a relationship with God is and can be extremely personal and can be a great source of peace, joy, and strength."

Most Reverend Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades(Bishop of Fort Wayne-South Bend)

"Our faith is a communal one. We at Hallow are excited to provide resources and experiences that help expand the impact of our faith communities both inside and outside the walls of church."

"Young people today are suffering from overwhelming levels of anxiety in a constantly-connected world, filled with a culture that is increasingly hostile toward faith. Hallow school partnerships are built to help teachers strengthen their students’ mental and spiritual lives through encountering Christ in meditative prayer."

We hope you enjoy the podcast and check out the Hallow App.
