School and Trust Prayers

School Prayer

We pray for our school community so that we may have life and have it to the full, through faithfulness to love and serve God, with compassion and kindness to all those around us.

We pray that we all grow in confidence to make the most of our abilities, determined and resilient in difficult times and do all that we do with a love of learning.

We ask that St Peter and St Paul be an example of friendship, hope and gratitude always promoting respect for the diversity and difference in our school community, that make us so enriched.

We ask that we are honest about our capabilities, showing perseverance and determination as we learn in our own unique way.

Help us practice our self-control, understanding that we all make mistakes and deserve forgiveness if we admit when we are wrong.  Making all experiences a tool to learn and grow in life.

Amen

Trust Prayer

God our Father, Give us strength so that, guided by Our Lady’s example,
we can have the courage to say yes to You.

Help us to love like she loves, has faith like she has
and follow Jesus’ example in all that we do.

Inspire in all of us a sense of togetherness, so that we can use the gifts you have given us for the good of all in our community and bring support and healing to those less fortunate than ourselves.

We ask Our Lady to guide us, just as she guided St. Bernadette,
as we seek to bring Jesus’ message of love and forgiveness to others.

We ask this through Jesus Christ, Your Son, Our Lord

Amen

Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us.
