Prayer For Catholic Schools Week :

Dear God,

Help us to be open to the challenge of proclaiming your mercy in the modern world. Guide our school to be rooted in your example. Open our hearts to reflect yourloving mercy in all we do, and inspire us to be brave in answering the call to ‘proclaim your mercy’.
