Kudos to Angelus and the archdiocese for highlighting a Catholic high school graduate who isn’t Catholic in its June 26 issue.

I found the story of Miracle Tisdale’s survival and path to success immensely inspiring. But I also thought it showed how Catholic education isn’t just for Catholics, but has a mission for everyone. Growing up, I had Catholic school friends in my class who weren’t even religious, but years later, it’s clear that the values, formation, and lessons acquired those years have guided them ever since.

I’m sure the same will be true for Miracle Tisdale.
