Elementary:
We begin in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Loving God, in this Easter season teach us:
To see you in all people.
To see you in all things.
To see you in the sunrise.
To see you at the sunset.
To see you in the good days.
And to see you in the night.
To wake fresh and excited
To explore your amazing light
And our life within
To share life and love
… a new day to begin!
Amen
In this month of Mary, we remember Jesus' light came into the world through his mother Mary. Let us ask our Mother Mary to help us see her son's light all around us:
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Mary, the Mother of Christ … Pray for us.
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
High School:
We begin in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
In this Easter season loving God, teach us to:
Count our blessings
instead of our crosses;
Count our gains
instead of our losses.
Count our joys
instead of our woes;
Count our friends
instead of our foes.
Count our smiles
instead of our tears;
Count our courage
instead of our fears.
Count our full years
instead of our lean;
Count our kind deeds
instead of our mean.
Count our health
instead of our wealth;
Love our neighbours
as much as ourselves.
