Year 6 OLSH Student Leadership Day

'Leading from the Heart'

Last Friday our Year 6 leaders gathered together with young leaders from OLSH College, St Martin’s, St Brigid’s and Immaculate Heart of Mary to further develop their leadership skills and to strengthen their connection with our OLSH tradition and charism.

The theme for the gathering was ‘Leading from the Heart’ and the students explored what it means to be ‘Heart People’ who make a difference in our community.

Holy Week

This Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week; the most important time in the Catholic Church.  It begins with Palm Sunday and ends with Easter Sunday.  During this time we look at the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem where he was hailed King, through to his death and resurrection.

We remember these important events because Jesus showed his great love for humankind by what he did.   We celebrate this story because by His love, Jesus showed us how to love God and each other and he also showed us that we can be with God too.

This Thursday afternoon at 2:30pm we will be joining together for the Stations of the Cross in the Sacred Heart Centre and then again on Friday at 10am for a Holy Week Reflection/Liturgy.     All parents and caregivers are welcome to attend.

Christ Jesus, your love is made visible through the mystery of your death and resurrection.

Make us one in you. Transform us into people of mercy who reach out to embrace you in the suffering ones in our midst. We ask this, as a people reconciled to God through the blood of your cross. Amen.
