F.A.I.T.H. - “I” is for Inspiring Daily Conversion
by Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson | 11/02/2026 | Handbook HighlightsAt San Francisco de Asis Catholic School, we want our students to know their faith and live it in meaningful ways. Inspiring daily conversion means opening our hearts to Christ and allowing His love to shape our choices. Through our example, we can encourage others to draw closer to Him, too.
In our Catholic faith, conversion is an ongoing journey. Each day brings opportunities to turn toward God: choosing kindness, asking for forgiveness, making amends, or helping someone in need. These everyday choices help our students grow as faithful disciples and become a light in the world.
A student who inspires daily conversion strives to:
- Treat every person with dignity, compassion, and fairness.
- Reflect honestly on choices, seek forgiveness, and make amends.
- Stand up for kindness and truth, even when it is difficult.
- Care for God’s creation by reducing waste and conserving resources.
- Practice empathy and peacemaking at school, at home, and in the community.
As teachers, parents, and members of our parish community, we share the responsibility to model these habits. Our children learn from how we manage disagreements, acknowledge mistakes, offer forgiveness, and care for others. When we show that we, too, are still learning and growing in faith, we help them understand that conversion is a lifelong response to God’s love.
This week, consider asking your child: “How did you turn toward Jesus today?” Share an example from your own day as well. A simple conversation can help children recognize God’s presence and see how small choices put faith into action.
Thank you for walking with us as we form compassionate, faith-filled disciples. May Christ continue to transform our hearts as we learn, lead, and live like Him.
