                                  Health & Safety
 The health and safety of our students and staff is our top priority at St. James the Apostle
  Catholic School, and we wish to provide you the most current recommendations of the
Archdiocese of San Antonio in partnership with city and federal health authorities regarding
                  health risks associated with coronavirus (COVID-19).

                       As Archbishop invites us, let us join in prayer:

      Our Lady of Guadalupe, in these times of tribulation we turn to you O Mother.
          See with compassion the suffering of your beloved daughters and sons
           Affected by the Coronavirus Pandemic throughout the entire world.
  As your Son to have mercy on us bringing healing to those infected and protection to all
                                        your children.
        Jesus Christ, savior of all people, grant us courage to accompany and pray
                For the entire world in the wake of sorrow and uncertainty.
    We seek refuge in you and according to your promise, deliver us from this danger.

                           Mary Help of Christians, Pray for us.
                                 St. James, Pray for us.
                                         Amen.
