For Kari and Todd Edwards Catholic schools are a great gift that teaches their children there’s no moment when your faith drops off and your real life picks up.
“It’s just been a great gift for us to have our children live out the hours of their days in an environment that is Christ-centered,” Kari says. “It has just been a blessing to our family, the way that Catholic schools really, truly do take the stance that they are here to assist families in forming their children.”
From her involvement in the classroom, to the All Saints’ Day Carnival at St. Mary’s, to her oldest son’s experience on the football field at Lansing Catholic High School, Kari sees faith woven through all of her children’s activities.
“I can’t imagine my children’s lives, and that many hours and those experiences that surround their education to be devoid of God,” she says. “God has provided in so many ways to allow us to have our children in Catholic school. He honors that desire in our heart for our children to be encircled by him every day.”
