Keep In your Prayers and Thoughts....

 

Our last week of term brought much sadness for our St Mel’s community.  Our thoughts and prayers have been with the Ferguson and Winmar families, especially Kaileah in Grade One.  Kiara’s funeral will be held this Friday 14th April at 10.30 am at Merrit Funeral Services. Merrit's is situated at 10-16 Macisaac Rd, Mooroopna. The burial will be at Mooroopna Cemetery followed by a wake at Merrit's. May Kiara rest in eternal peace. We continue to support and pray for Kaileah and her family at this sad and difficult time, and we pray that our faith be strengthened and that our confidence in the loving care of our God be renewed this Easter season. 

 

To all our students and families who are currently unwell.

 

To any of our students, families, staff and school community who may be grieving the loss of a loved one.

 

All our families, we pray to keep them safe and healthy as we commence this school year

 

Our teachers as the guide our children in the classroom.

 

"And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith." Matthew 21:22

 

 

St Mel’s Parish Prayer

 

God our Father,

Bless our Parish so that we may love you more. Encircle our families with your loving care.  Help parents to be good examples to their children and our youth to grow in strength as good Christians. 

To the sick, grant health. 

To the aged, bring serenity and to those in sorrow, joy.

May we grow stronger in faith and may our love for one another become

 deeper in our daily living. 

Amen
