1. Path to Life

3. Prayers of Intercession
Creator God, the centre of our school communities, we come
before you confident our prayers will be heard:
May our Catholic schools be Christ centered communities that
proclaim the Good News of Jesus’ life, death and resurrection.
All: Gracious God, hear our prayer
May our Catholic schools be communities that foster
the development of the whole person
and value each person’s unique gifts.
May our Catholic schools be communities that create safe, supportive
and respectful learning and teaching environments
that foster student wellbeing.
May our Catholic schools nurture the capacity of each learner
so they grow in wisdom and live in right relationship with God and all creation.

4. It is the desire of Jesus we live our lives to the full.
Closing Prayer
It is the desire of Jesus we live our lives to the full.
It is also the keen desire of every person to live a life, walking in his footsteps.
All: We give thanks loving God for your presence
in all creation.
May we continue to use our gifts to build your kingdom.
Stir our hope and imagination
as we share with our colleagues today,
and continue to inspire our passion
for Catholic Education.
We ask this through Christ our Lord,
Amen.
