May God the Father who made us bless us. 

May God the Son send his healing among us. 

May God the Holy Spirit move within us and give us eyes to see with, ears to hear with, and hands that your work might be done. 

May we walk and preach the word of God to all. 

May the angel of peace watch over us and lead us at last by God’s grace to the Kingdom.

Amen.

We pray ...

We pray for... Campbell & Ellie preparing for the Sacrament of Confirmation.

We pray for... for all who are sick, all recovering from illness, and for all the people in our world who may be experiencing grief, anxiety or depression.

REFLECTION

Each night as I reflect on my day I focus on the goodness I have experienced that day and whether I recognised opportunities for me to show goodness to others. 

It can be easy to criticise, judge and find fault.  I challenge us all to see the goodness that is all around us every day and to seek out opportunities to show goodness.  And then to thank God for this awareness.

Marriage and Family Week

Marriage and Family Week begins on Sunday 25 to Saturday 31 July. The focus for this year is The Family: I am with you always. During week 3, students will be taught specific lessons that will develop their understanding of the topic around the family.
