Favorite Quote: “At every time and in every place, God draws close to man. He calls man to seek him, to know him, to love him with all his strength.” – Catechism of the Catholic Church 1

Mrs. Bernhardt has been blessed to be in Catholic ministry for over 15 years! She is excited to join the PND community and continue to grow more in love with Jesus Christ and to grow in holiness with those around her. Mrs. Bernhardt converted to the Catholic faith when she was in high school largely through the influence of teachers who witnessed to her. As Pope Paul VI said, “Modern man listens more willingly to witnesses than to teachers, and if he does listen to teachers, it is because they are witnesses.” She desires to do the very same for each student and accompany them in their relationship with Jesus Christ. Outside of school, Mrs. Bernhardt enjoys running and weight lifting, spending time with her sweet family, reading, spending time outside, visiting new coffee and ice cream shops, and praying in Adoration.
