Prayer of the Week
For Those Affected by the Recent Floods
At this time, we hold in our minds and hearts all those affected by the floods and pouring rain.
Our hearts go out to those whose homes, possessions and businesses have been destroyed or damaged by floods in Melbourne and throughout parts of Victoria.
We remember in prayer:
Those whose lives have been devastated,
Those who are feeling vulnerable and weak
Those who are stranded
Those who are facing both long-term and short-term needs
Those who are homeless in this crippling time
We pray also for all those who are meeting needs at this time:
Volunteers and community workers
Those working to rescue people who are stranded and feed the hungry
Those supplying food, water, equipment, money and urgent supplies
Those working to clear roadways and homes that have been damaged
Police officers, emergency personnel, medical and social welfare responders
Those seeking to offer protection from theft and fraud.
We pray that each of us will play our part in responding to the overwhelming conditions of this time, and particularly in reaching out to those who are struggling to rebuild their lives.
We pray too, that we will continue to urge the Government to play its part in strengthening structures that will heal our land, restore creation, and relieve those suffering homelessness and poverty.
We make all our prayers in the name of Jesus, who reached out always to those most in need.
AMEN.

On Friday 14th October, saw our school students put on their craziest socks and bring their Socktober soccer balls to school. We were raising money for Catholic Mission who helps children all over the world with food, medication, education and support. We had a great time on Friday afternoon kicking goals for Socktober.
Here are some happy snaps from our day.
