Dear Families,
Thank you to our Grade 3 Class with the help from students in grades 4-6 for leading us in the Living Rosary today. We continue to pray for peace in areas of conflict around the world. We also pray for peace in our community.
Peace Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace:
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
O divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen
Please note that a separate email has been sent out regarding Parent Participation hours.

Have a blessed weekend!
