From The REC

Loving God,
We thank you for the gift of Catholic schools. We ask you to bless all the families who are part of our St Francis Xavier’s community.
Bless the parents, guardians, and grandparents who make sacrifices to provide a Catholic education for their children. Grant them wisdom, patience, and strength as they nurture their children in faith and love.
Bless our students, that they may grow in hope, knowledge, wisdom, and grace. Help them to use their gifts and talents to serve others and to be a light to the world.
Bless our teachers and staff, that they may continue to inspire and guide our students in the Catholic faith. Give them the courage to live out their vocation with joy and dedication.
May St Francis Xavier’s be a place where faith is nurtured, hope is kindled, and love is shared. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

It was a wonderful opportunity for our students to represent our school and join with others from across the diocese in a shared celebration of faith, community spirit and commitment to Catholic education.
