OPENING STAFF MASS

On Wednesday 27th January we held our Opening Staff Mass with Mater Dei Primary School Staff. The theme of the Mass was ‘Love’. It was a beautiful start to the year, celebrating our faith together.

COLLEGE OPENING MASS

Our College Opening Mass is next week, Tuesday 9th February. New 2021 Captains will have their badges presented at the Mass. The Mass will be live streamed for family and friends and the theme of the Mass is Stand Firm in Faith’.

PROJECT COMPASSION

Starting on Ash Wednesday, 17th February, Project Compassion will share stories from people in Bangladesh, Solomon Islands, Tanzania, Indonesia and Australia. These stories humble and inspire us, and show how our contributions to Project Compassion help people build better lives for themselves, their families and their communities. Project Compassion’s theme this year is “Be More”.

PRAYER FOR A NEW SCHOOL YEAR

In our times of joy...

Help us to feel your presence so that we may celebrate our good times with you.

When we encounter times of struggle…

Help us to draw strength from your love and from each other.

As challenges arise…

Help us to confront them with courage and perseverance, trusting in the knowledge that you are walking alongside us.

When we overcome the difficult situations that face us…

Help us to humbly and gratefully acknowledge the wisdom gained from our new experiences.

We make this prayer through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
