Family Testimonials
I would like to begin my letter first of all by thanking CTODP for the scholarship support for my children to continue their Catholic education. I truly believe that God will continue to bless us all as one body in Jesus Christ through this program and the entire Catholic Church . I have been so very blessed this year from your scholarship and feel secure now and in the future that God will continue to provide the financial support to all who put their lives in His hands and do His will. As it is written in the Bible, Psalm 37, "Trust in the Lord and do good that you may dwell in the land and live secure, find your delight in the Lord who will give you your heart's desire." Again, thank you so very much. It is very comforting to know in this modern day world that we as Catholics are very blessed to be a part of one true faith and family. God is good, all the time. Thank you, St. Mary-Basha Catholic School family
I wanted to give my children a quality education in a place where the Catholic faith is practiced, along with respect and kindness which are seen in action every day at St. Mary-Basha Catholic School. Without the assistance of the Catholic Tuition Organization of the Diocese of Phoenix (CTODP), this would not be a reality for me. I feel truly blessed to live in a world where the generosity of others is portrayed in a manner in which my children and I are given this opportunity to enrich our lives spiritually and academically. I cannot say "thank you" enough to the Diocese for the assistance you have given me, it is truly a gift from God.
We are so grateful for CTODP's financial assistance. With their help, we are able to provide our son with a priceless Catholic education, that we would otherwise not be able to provide him with. A Catholic education is extremely invaluable to us. Our son is not only learning social and academic skills to carry with him the rest of his life, but the spiritual education will shape him into an intellectual and respectful adult. It is also so gratifying to know that our values that we instill at home are being reinforced at school.
