Chris Beck, Gesu School President, welcomes the crowd to the dedication of the additional and renovated spaces at Gesu School. 20,000 square feet of space make the school more adaptable to the needs of Gesu's 450 children. Chris announced that the school had raised 80% of its goal of $12,000,000, half for building needs and half for endowment.

A PRAYER FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR, 2006-2007
Good and gracious God, continue to send your Spirit upon the staff, the teachers and the children of Gesu School as they begin this school year of 2006-2007. May they know your Spirit of courage and hope as they enjoy the miracle of these new and refreshed spaces. As your Spirit encouraged the builders of these spaces and helped them endure their hardships, may your Spirit encourage Gesu’s children and help them endure the hardships of education and the challenge of becoming mature men and women.


May the children of Gesu School live according to the heritage preserved for them by their ancestors giving you the praise day by day. May they come to know themselves as brothers and sisters of Jesus, your Son, and of all the world’s children. May they discover themselves as children whom you love and who by their efforts can offer this world your love and service.


Lord, you brought us to this day. Bring us back in Junes to come for our graduation ceremonies so that we can continue to thank you. May we celebrate the graduation of the class of 2007 and witness many graduations to come.


We ask all these things in praise of our God, Father, Son and Spirit.


God’s Workers, God’s Building, God’s children. Perfect together.
