Daily Prayer
“And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of the underworld shall not prevail against it”. (Matthew 16:18)
There is an old saying that there is strength in numbers. To stand alone for a cause is hard, but to stand with a group gives us bravado, purpose and identity. Jesus knew that. He knew that His mission would be accomplished more easily if many individuals banded together as one body to give strength and support to one another.
Do I give active support to the faith communities of my school and parish, or is my involvement in name only?
School Prayer
Lord, I thank you for bringing me to another day.
May I live it completely for You,
Through you,
With You and in you. Amen
Blessed John Henry Newman, Pray for Us.

Daily Prayer
Feast of St Anthony of Padua
“The people who sit in darkness have seen a great light, on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by darkness, light has arisen”. (Matthew 4:16)
When do you find yourself preferring darkness to the light of Christ? Can you make some changes to your life that will le
ad you to the light of Christ?
School Prayer
Lord, I thank you for bringing me to another day.
I live it completely for You,
Through you,
With You and in you. Amen

Caritas
On Monday June 6, 1040 young people from across the country received the Pope Benedict XVI Caritas Award in recognition of their dedicated service to their school and faith communities.
Over 3000 pupils, teachers, parents and family members attended a special ceremony in the Glasgow Clyde Auditorium, where those who have been participating in the programme over the last year were presented with their award.
In a special greeting and Apostolic Blessing, Pope Francis urged the young people “to courageously witness to the love that God has for every individual person”.
