Last Friday St Edmunds hosted a Fathers Day Mass in the Chapel to acknowledge the important role that Fathers, Grandfathers and Guardians play in the lives of our boys. With boys present from all year levels, this really showed the diverse range of individuals who are daily supporting our boys to become the best men that they can be. We pray that all men and women can support our students towards becoming the best version of themselves and that our boys embrace their unique gifts and talents in what they choose to do with their lives.
“I can do all things, through Christ who strengthened us.”
Philippians 4:13
We ask you to join in a quick prayer to honour dads, husbands, sons and all the men in our lives. Let’s praise God for placing these honourable, kind, gentle souls in our paths for His loving light to shine through, providing us with a beautiful example of what it means to live for God.
Make the sign of our Faith (sign of the cross)
Dear God,
Thank you for all the fathers and father-figures in this world and for the many ways you use them to lovingly guide others to Your heart. I ask that you would bless them and give them great joy and peace. May they see You and know You in new ways. Show them how much you love them and care about them. Guide their steps, use their hands, and make them a blessing to others as you continue to fulfill your special purpose for their lives.
Amen
Blessed Edmund Rice
Pray for us
Live Jesus in our hearts forever
Amen.
