Joyful Disciples is the theme for Catholic education in the Austin Diocese this year, and a Bryan family exemplifies this joy at St. Joseph Catholic School. Members of St. Joseph Parish, Martha and Richard Johnson are the parents of four students, who are in the third, sixth, 10th and 12th grades. While growing up, Martha attended Catholic elementary school.
As the school year moves into overdrive with hectic schedules and more stress on students and parents, two groups of moms at Holy Family Catholic School and St. Dominic Savio High School in Austin are meeting regularly to build community, build their prayer lives and build their bodies.
