Today was a day of celebration and deep significance, as our school Principal Mrs. Lissette D Shumny stood before her students, colleagues, friends, and family during the morning Divine Liturgy—not only to mark a milestone 50 birthday but to embrace a profound spiritual journey.

Having been raised in a different faith tradition, Mrs. Shumny has long felt a calling to the Catholic Church. On this special day, during the Church’s Jubilee Year of Hope, she responded to that call with courage and grace. After months of preparation, she publicly professed the Creed and was officially received into the Catholic Church.

We are incredibly proud of your faith journey, Mrs. Shumny, and the joyful “yes” you have given to Christ and His Church. Your witness is an inspiration to us all.

Welcome home—and happy birthday!
