DAY 1
MORNING PRAYER
Each year, the Catholic
School Divisions in Saskatchewan engage in a week-long celebration of the
unique identity and distinctive contributions of Catholic education during
Catholic Education Week. This year’s celebration is entitled, “Catholic
Education: Rebuild, Restore, Renew Together”. The five sub-themes for Catholic
Education: Rebuild, Restore, Renew Together are: Rediscover & Rebuild,
Restore, Renew, and Rejoice. Let us Celebrate Catholic Education Week.
Gracious God,
You taught us that where two or three are gathered,
you are there.
We have been isolated from each other
and need communal healing.
Give us your Spirit
that we may reach out to form communities in new ways.
You call us to be in relationship with one another.
Sometimes our relationships need to be rediscovered and rebuilt.
Nudge us to rebuild the relationships in our lives
that are significant,
so we can live in peace and joy
with one another.
Amen
Main Entrance - Mr. McDougall
North Entrance - Mrs. Schrader
