Message from our Youth Pastor
As a way of starting our 3rd term together I think a collective prayer might hold us together as a school community
Let us pray,
Lord God, Creator of body, mind, and heart. At the beginning of this new school term, we pray and ask you to bless the boys, teachers, and staff of Bishops Diocesan College, Bishops Prep and Bishops Pre-Prep. We ask for unity that together we may grow in faith, hope, and love as we learn from each other. Expand the horizons of our minds, that we may grow in wisdom, understanding, and knowledge; deepen our commitment to seek truth, and deepen our faith to reach out to those in need.
Lord God, we remember, family, friends and those who may have lost a loved one during this time to the corona virus. We ask that you comfort them in their loss. Heal those who may be recovering and give us your peace during this anxious time.
Loving God, look upon the boys at our school. Let them enjoy their learning and take delight in new discoveries. Help them to persevere in their studies and give them the desire to learn all things well. Look upon the teachers. Let them strive to share their knowledge with gentle patience and endeavour always to bring the truth to eager minds. Grant that the boys and teachers alike may follow Jesus Christ, the way, the truth, and the life, forever and ever. Amen |
