Father Francis Pizzarelli, brother of Athletic Director Patrick Pizzarelli, spoke to the entire Lawrence High School student body. The title of his talk was, “The Poverty of Caring: A Call to Wellness and Wholeness”. He spoke on the many issues that today’s young people have to deal with. He told our students a few real life experiences that he has had with teenage suicide and drinking and driving. He empowered all of our students to “make a difference” and not be afraid to reach out and help one another. He ended his presentation by asking all the students to stand and join hands with their neighbors as a sign of unity and oneness that we want our school to be. It was a very powerful experience.
