MORNING PRAYER

God, Creator and Redeemer of all things,
Teach us to look inward to be grounded in your loving Spirit,
so that we may live in your wisdom and courage

Amen.

UPSTAGE PRODUCTIONS: Drama January 11th - 13th

École St Mary High School would like to invite the community to Upstage Productions' drama, Puffs or Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic. In this hilarious parody of a familiar story, three potential heroes are just trying to make it through a magic school that proves to be very dangerous for children. Alongside them are the Puffs, a group of well-meaning, loyal outsiders with a thing for badgers. Their epic quest takes the classic story to new places and reimagines what a boy wizard hero can be. Showtimes at the E.A. Rawlinson Centre are at 7:30 p.m. fromThursday, January 11th to Saturday, January 13th.  Tickets cost $22.00 for adults (ages 19 and over) and $18.00 for students (ages 18 years and under) and are available at the E.A. Rawlinson Box Office, online at https://tickets.citypa.ca/TheatreManager/1/tmEvent/tmEvent1427.html or by phoning 765-1270.​
