"I am so grateful to be part of SJP2CA. Being part of the Academy has literally been how I have built my faith life and embraced the way I want to spend my future. Today, I had the privilege of having a 3-year old homeless youngster fall asleep holding my hand against his cheek. I prayed like I never have before for this little boy to feel peace and safety...knowing that he fell asleep in our care because he knew he was safe and loved. THAT is our Academy. THAT is why I am so blessed to be part of this!"
