St. Augustine's School Prayer

Our Father in Heaven,

Look over and bless St. Augustine’s while we are working and playing.

Help us to respect and care for each other as you taught us to.

Give us the opportunity to do our best for you each day.

We look forward to being able to share our lives with our friends and families.

Keep us safe and give us the courage to be

people who want to know you more.

Amen.

I invite all families to pray this prayer at home, maybe before coming to school one morning each week.

Prayer of the Week

Almighty God,

for the glory of Your Name

and the salvation of souls,

You conferred upon St. Lawrence,

the spirits of counsel and fortitude.

Grant us, in the same Spirit,

to know what we are to do,

and through his prayers,

to do what we have come to know.

We ask this through Our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son,

Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit,

one God, forever and ever.

Amen.

St. Lawrence's Feast Day was Tuesday 21st July

Scripture of the Week

Matthew 13:44-46

Jesus said to the crowds, ‘The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field which someone has found; he hides it again, goes off happy, sells everything he owns and buys the field.

‘Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls; when he finds one of great value he goes and sells everything he owns and buys it.’
