Missio Dei

Helena Tutoe

Campus Minister

On Tuesday 2nd March,  we celebrated the long tradition of Shrove Tuesday as a College community. Thank you to our Missio Dei Leaders, Miss Zappala and Mrs Marton's Pastoral Group for cooking the pancakes. As we prepare ourselves for the Lenten journey ahead, may we all be people of transformation who can make a difference in our own lives and of others through our fasting, prayers and penance.

"Jesus, help me to simplify my life by learning what You want me to be and becoming that person." ~ St Therese of Lisieux.

As part of Shrove Tuesday, 8.6 PG helped Missio Dei and PG 10.3 ran a pancake day. At the start of the morning, I was handing out cutlery and by the end of the morning I was giving out pancakes since many people from our grade started to help when they got to school.  It was lots of fun especially with all my friends around. I am very happy that I was a part of raising $143 for Caritas on behalf of our St Mary’s community.
