Our Lady of Malibu Middle School students participated in a field trip on September 11 to visit the memorial flag display at Pepperdine University. Each student who went on the trip chose a flag that represented a victim of the attack to sit near and had a moment of silence to remember and pray for them. The students used this opportunity to reflect and honor the lives of those who were lost on Sept. 11, 2001.
Students prayed and sang as a faith community and recognized the blessings of being American. They created six-word stories and shared the emotions that the flags evoked for each of them.
