OUR FAITH
PRAYER
May God the Father who made us bless us.
May God the Son send his healing among us.
May God the Holy Spirit move within us and give us eyes to see with, ears to hear with, and hands that your work might be done.
May we walk and preach the word of God to all.
May the angel of peace watch over us and lead us at last by God’s grace to the Kingdom.
Amen.
We pray ...
We pray for .....Mrs Robyn Burke upon her retirement from 42 years of faithful service, for a successful athletics carnival, for all those travelling during the holidays – may they be kept safe; for our St Nicholas School Community, that we all experience a happy and refreshing holiday break with our family and loved ones.
