Pope Leo XIV: 'Peace be with all of you'
Pope Leo XIV greets the faithful and the world, invoking peace and pledging to work for a united Church faithful to Jesus and to the Gospel.
Prayer for Pope Leo XIV
Heavenly Father,
You have raised Your servant, Pope Leo XIV, to the Chair of Saint Peter.
Pour out Your abundant blessings upon him.
Through him, guide Your pilgrim Church along the path to Heaven.
Grant him wisdom to discern Your will,
Courage to fulfill it,
And charity to shepherd Your people with the Heart of Christ.
In this time of transition,
Bring peace to troubled hearts,
Joy to those who suffer,
And hope to the despairing.
May he be a faithful successor to Saint Peter,
A humble servant of Your Word,
And a fearless herald of Your Divine Mercy and Truth.
Strengthen him with the grace of the Holy Spirit,
That he may lead the Church in unity, holiness, and fidelity.
We entrust him to the maternal care of the Blessed Virgin Mary,
And to the prayers of all the saints.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
Student service at Whiddon
Ten of our Year 10 students have generously volunteered their time each week to visit the residents at Whiddon, embracing a spirit of service and compassion. Their presence has brought joy and connection, as they’ve shared in activities like balloon tennis, quoits, and reading magazines with the residents. Their kindness and commitment are truly commendable, and it is inspiring to see them living out our school value of Mercy in action.
As Catherine McAuley reminds us: “We should be as shining lamps, giving light to all around us.”
Vinnies at St Matthews
Our Vinnies students will be launching the Annual Winter Appeal in Week 5. As part of this initiative, each student is encouraged to bring in one non-perishable food item through their tutor group. These donations will be used to create food parcels that support individuals and families in need within our own local community. Your generosity can make a real difference this winter.
