Creator God, we follow in the footsteps of Jesus, as we walk together on your path of love, hope and faith.
Thank you for the gifts of our school,
our environment, our families and friends.
May our school be a place of learning, care, welcome and celebration.
Mary our Mother, pray for us.
St Mary of the Cross, pray for us.
Amen
Last Friday we had our beginning of the year Mass and BBQ lunch.
Thank you to Fr Adi for giving the Mass and the P&F ladies who cooked the BBQ for all the students and friends and family.
This week marks the Seventh Sunday of Ordinary Time (Year C) in the Catholic calendar. It is a time to reflect on the commandment of love, as expressed in John 13:34: "Love one another as I have loved you."
The Gospel of Luke reminds us that true love extends even to those we may find challenging. This week, we are called to embrace kindness, compassion, and understanding in all our relationships.
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke
Be merciful as your Father is merciful.
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘I say this to you who are listening: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who treat you badly.
