Over the past two weeks, students from Bishop Gorman have collected 2,517 food items in a spirited competition between grade levels. Congratulations to the sixth grade class for bringing in the most food with over 950 food items. Thank you for being servants for Christ.
All collected food was taken to the East Texas Food Bank for further distribution. Bishop Gorman is happy to partner with community organizations to help those in need.
And thanks to Burger King for donating the crowns to our winners!
Matthew 25:35-40
35 for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you something to drink? 38 And when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you, or naked and gave you clothing? 39 And when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you?’ 40 And the king will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.’

Last night, November 19, Bishop Gorman inducted 16 students into the National Honor Society. These students not only excel academically through scholarship, but also show excellence in leadership, character, and service.
All current members participated in the induction of these new members from the opening welcome, to prayer, readings about the four pillars of NHS, the NHS pledge and more. They welcomed new members with grace and dignity, and we are so proud of their commitment to loving and serving their fellow students.
National Honor Society students continue to show their commitment to Bishop Gorman students and the community by offering tutoring to younger students and by selecting a service project which they will complete by the end of the school year.
Crusaders are more than students. They are leaders, servants, and committed to sharing the love of God with the world.

Catholic education has become synonymous with academic excellence since its inception in the Middle Ages. From the founding of the first cathedrals and universities, Catholics have been educating and improving literacy around the world for centuries. Combining Greek philosophy and education with Catholic moral teaching is the cornerstone of our model.
Bishop Gorman Catholic School continues this model of educational excellence. With a focus on the spirit, mind, and body, BG students excel by every possible metric. Student successes include National Merit and AP Scholars, formation as priests and missionaries, highly sought-after professionals educated at the best colleges and universities, national and international artists and performers, and the opportunity to play sports at the college-level.
As these students of all beliefs are developed into professionals, artists and athletes, they are also formed in the teaching of the Catholic faith, love, and service to others. BG students attend Holy Mass weekly and perform over 100 hours of community service in high school. Additionally, the 11th grade Christian service immersion program offers students the opportunity to serve locally, nationally, and internationally. All students are able to serve around the school and in their local parishes and churches.
Our Founders, even from the Middle Ages, laid the groundwork for this great system of education. Let us thank God for the opportunity to provide such excellence to the greater Tyler community.
