Ministry and Evangelisation
Ministry Leaders
This week during the College Assembly we had an opportunity to acknowledge the 2023 Ministry Leaders. These students will support Evangelisation and take an active role in being leaders and role models for all students in terms of engagement with faith and living a life for others. Our Ministry Leaders are as follows:
Blessing of Ministry Leaders
We bless you, O God, and we praise your name. In your merciful providence you sent your Son into the world to free us from the bondage of sin by his own blood and to enrich us with the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Before he returned, triumphant over death, to you, Father, he sent his apostles, the bearers of his love and power, to proclaim the Gospel of life to all peoples and in the waters of baptism to cleanse those who believe.
Lord, look kindly on your servants: we send them forth as messengers of salvation and peace, marked with the sign of the cross. Guide their steps with your mighty arm and with the power of your grace strengthen them in spirit, so that they will not falter through weariness. Make their words the echo of Christ's voice, so that those who hear them may be drawn to obey the Gospel.
Fill the hearts of our Ministry Leaders with the Holy Spirit, so that, becoming all things to all people, they may lead many to you, the Father of all, to sing your praises in your holy Church.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
Project Compassion “For All Future Generations” - this week’s story
In PC this week students were shared the story of Tereesa. She is a Gamilaroi woman from Western Sydney who struggled with homelessness while raising her four children. Through the Baabayn Young Mums and Bubs Group, Tereesa was able to reconnect with her culture and create a better future for her children.
We pray for all people who are a source of hope in the world, who help to transfigure darkness into light. May our support of Project Compassion help to keep alive our vision of Christ as the one we should most listen to, the light of the world.
