lecDear Sacred Heart Community, 

Prayer

A Prayer for Peace

Lord Jesus Christ,

You are the true King of peace. In You alone is found freedom.

Please free our world from conflict. Bring unity to troubled nations. Let Your glorious peace reign in every heart.

Dispel all darkness and evil. Protect the dignity of every human life. Replace hatred with Your love.

Give wisdom to world leaders. Free them from selfish ambition. 

Eliminate all violence and war.

Amen

Maureen Bedson Foundation

Maureen Bedson is a former Sacred Heart parishioner, teacher and lecturer in education. Maureen lectured me when I was student at ACU in the mid 1980s.

Maureen was very passionate about education and upon her passing a foundation was established to support educational initiatives that were close to her heart. In 2024, we were fortunate to have the Maureen Bedson Foundation support our school for the first time. I was contacted by the foundation yesterday to say that this support will continue in 2025. This is great news for our school and we are very grateful.
