Prayer

God of goodness and mercy,

Hear my prayer as I begin this Lenten journey with you.

Let me be honest with myself as I look into my heart and soul,

noticing the times I turn away from you.

Guide me as I humbly seek to repent and return to your love.

May humility guide my efforts to be reconciled with you and

live forever in your abundant grace.

Transform me this Lent, heavenly Father.

Give me the strength to commit myself to grow closer to you each day.

Amen.

Please return Project Compassion boxes back to school by Wednesday this week.

The Year of St Joseph

‘Joseph’s is a unique gift. Given the family structure of his day, only he could correspond with the invitation of God to “legitimise” the birth of Jesus and to provide the context in which the Word could be enfleshed’. Mary Cresp rsj, In the Spirit of Joseph, p.10 How does the spirit of Joseph encourage and support you in your living today?

Mary MacKillop encourages us to ‘Apply to St Joseph with confidence in every difficulty and you will not be disappointed’ Mary MacKillop (1906) Prayer Joseph, Beloved Father, you faced the numerous crises in your life with courage and resilience. Be with parents and guardians as they deal with the challenges of raising families today. Help us as we respond, each according to our own capacity.
