Throughout my years here at Queen of Heaven I learned what it really means to be a christian. I learned to be thankful and appreciate everything that God gave me. Jesus sacrificed everything to save us, we should be grateful and help spread the message of God. By going to a catholic school I learned to put God first before everything else. I realized I have to trust God and believe he will lead me in the right direction. I am so grateful I got the chance to spend my years here at Queen of Heaven learning about God.
