Father's Day Celebration Video 2021

Happy Father’s Day to all our fathers or other father figures (such as stepfather, grandfather, uncle or close family friend)! Each year around Father’s Day, we host a Father-Daughter Mass and Dinner. Due to current restrictions, we have had to cancel the usual celebration and instead, to celebrate the father figures in our students’ lives, we have put together a virtual reflection video to the fathers in the Merici community, to thank them and celebrate their impact on their daughters’ lives.
