During the month of November, the Church focusses her prayer in a particular way on the Holy Souls; those who have died in friendship with God and are undergoing purification before entering heaven.
All classes engaged in learning about this part of our faith, in writing November Lists and praying for the faithful departed in short services in the oratory. Some classes produced some artwork as part of learning the ‘Eternal Rest’ prayer and that Catholics face death with hope in the resurrection.
S1 classes enjoyed a ‘Spooky Silence’ during which they watched ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas.’ The main character in the film lives a life of darkness in Halloween Town but has a conversion when he discovers Christmas and tries to bring joy to his hometown, with mixed reception!
Miss Morrison and the CREDO club also arranged a Halloween Disco for S1 and they had great fun with dressing up, dancing and games. This along with the Spooky Silence raised just short of £800 for Mary’s Meals!!
