The Oratory

Our school has a small chapel which we call the “Oratory”. All members of our school community are most welcome to come and use this beautiful room for prayer and reflection. Visitors are asked to report to the main office. Children and staff use this room for reflection and quiet prayer as well as class Masses and Assemblies.

The Oratory has been relocated within school and it continues to be a quiet place of peace and prayer.

 

The Chaplaincy Group are always busy in school helping to prepare and lead collective worship across the school.

 

Synod 2020

The themes of the Synod are:

• All called and gifted by God – We are called to be saints in today’s world 
• Sharing the Mission of Jesus – The Church is the compassionate face of Jesus in the world today
• How we pray together – Pray and when you finish praying…pray some more-how we pray together
• Building community, nurturing belonging – The Church can create experiences where strangers can become family.

” Father, we thank you for the love you have shown us in the gift of Jesus your Son.”

Weekly Reflections 

 

Loving God and Each Other

This week let us encourage each other in what we do. There are times when we all need encouraging especially when we are going through difficult times.

“With God we can do great things”.

Pope Francis

What great things can we do together during this week?

 

 Loving God and Each Other

“God loves each of us as if there were only one of us”.

St Augustine of Hippo

Dear Lord Jesus, Please help our family to grow in your love and and to share your love with others through the way we live our lives.

How can we share God’s love this week?

 

Loving God and Each Other

When we receive the Sacraments we are reminded of God’s love and care for us.

In the Gospels we are reminded of Jesus’ love and care for us. Jesus brought healing and light into the life of the man who was born blind.

Read the Gospel of John 9:v1-8

 

 Loving God and Each Other

God is Compassionate.

He came to take away fear, sadness and lonliness.

 

How can we follow in the footsteps of Jesus this week?

Has anybody shown you compassion this week?

St Vincent de Paul reminds us that we should strive to keep our hearts open to the sufferings of others. We can help through prayer and by giving to others.

 

 

Let us Pray for Peace

“Let us pray for peace:peace in the world and in our hearts.”

Pope Francis

 

Each Encounter with Jesus Changes our Life

“We must not fail to help our neighbours because it is in them that we serve Jesus”.

St Rose of Lima

He is with us at all times and in all places. We can meet him in prayer and in one another.
