Education in Faith
Education in Faith encompasses the following areas: Religious Education, Prayer, Liturgy and Sacraments.
On our return to school the Year 3 students began their preparation to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation. As a whole school, in class, we will read and learn the messages in the scripture passage taken from Luke 15: 11-32 The Parable of the Lost Son. The message of forgiveness and asking for forgiveness is such an important message for our children to hear and understand.
This coming Sunday is World Day for Grandparents. Sunday, has been designated by Pope Francis, as the First World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly. It coincides with the Feast of Saints Joachim and Anne, grandparents of Jesus, on July 26. The day draws attention to the vital role grandparents and the elderly play in our communities and in the mission of the Church.
Here is a prayer you may like to say as a family.
