6th Grade Retreat: Being Men and Women of the Word of God
In celebration of the Solemnity of the Annunciation, our 6th grade students participated in a meaningful retreat centered on the theme “Being Men and Women of the Word of God.”
Inspired by Mary’s faithful “yes” to the Lord, students were invited to reflect on what it means to listen to God’s voice and live according to His Word in their daily lives. Through moments of prayer, reflection, and community, they were encouraged to grow in faith and deepen their relationship with Christ.
It was a beautiful and intentional day, guiding our students to become not only hearers of the Word, but true witnesses of it in the world.

It was a wonderful way to celebrate learning, creativity, and the beauty of the colorful world God has given us.
Solemnity of the Annunciation of the Lord
On March 25, our Academy came together to celebrate the Solemnity of the Annunciation, the moment when the Angel Gabriel announced to the Virgin Mary that she would become the Mother of our Savior.
Through her humble and faithful “yes,” God’s plan of salvation began to unfold for the entire world. It is a powerful reminder of the beauty of trust, surrender, and openness to God’s will.
May Mary’s example inspire our students, faculty, and families to listen to God’s voice and respond with courage and love in their daily lives.
“Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.” — Luke 1:38
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us.

During this beautiful Mass, our students preparing to receive their First Holy Communion were invited to come forward and join in praying the Our Father at the altar, holding hands with the priests, a deeply meaningful moment of prayer and anticipation for the sacrament they will soon receive.
We are especially grateful to Fr. Juan Carlos Paguaga and Fr. Jorge Reyes for leading us in this special celebration and helping guide our hearts in honoring St. Joseph, faithful protector of the Holy Family and patron of the Universal Church.
May his example inspire our St. Agnes family to live with humility, trust, and quiet strength.
