We pray:
We pray:
- That our Catholic schools may reveal the glory of God in all that they do
- That our year of ‘Courage to Lead’ may be rooted in the synodal practices of listening, dialogue and discernment
- That our Catholic schools may nurture the growth of wisdom and virtue in the young
- For unity and solidarity within our communities
