Easter is a great reminder that Christ died and rose once and for all and for each one of us. His death and resurrection can transform our lives as we endeavour to live lives that know the freedom of goodness – lives that have love for our neighbour, lives that respect all creation, lives that restore hope and mercy.

Prayer

Catholic Easter Prayer Lord, the resurrection of Your Son has given us new life and renewed hope.

Help us to live as new people in pursuit of the Christian ideal.

Grant us wisdom to know what we must do,

the will to want to do it,

the courage to undertake it,

the perseverance to continue to do it,

and the strength to complete it.

Amen

Welcome back to Term Two. This term, we look forward to working with our Year 4 students to prepare for and make their Sacrament of First Eucharist. Any students who have made their Reconciliation in the past and missed out on making their First Eucharist because of Covid or any other reason are also warmly welcome to attend. Please contact the school if you would like more information.

We look forward to meeting with families at the First Eucharist Session, currently scheduled for Thursday, May 6 at St Joseph's school hall from 6:30pm.

God Bless!
