Let God Work Wonders

Let God Work Wonders

Bishop Ahr High School is challenging its students, faculty, and community members to renew that following by "Letting God Work Wonders" through us, in our thoughts, in our words, and in our deeds. Perhaps each of us can reveal the wonders of God in each of the 40 days of Lent, because even the smallest of God's deeds can have a mighty impact.
