Ash Wednesday

Ash Wednesday Mass was a beautiful way to start our Lenten Journey for 2025. Fr Lolesio spoke about giving up something that makes a change in us for the good of everyone. A change that should continue after Lent. Below is the prayer we all say in Mass that you may like to pray with your family during this season to remind us of how we can make that change. Thank you to Stage 2 and the choir for leading the ministries of the Mass. Following Mass, the students participated in just one way that they can prepare for easter through almsgiving with Rice Day. Rice day raised over $520 for Mercy Works. Thank you for this support. Thank you also to the Student Leadership Team for their assistance with Rice Day.

Project Compassion

Ash Wednesday also marks the start of Project Compassion. Every family would have received a Project Compassion Box and letter this week. Over the next six weeks the newsletter will contain stories of those people who Project Compassion supports across the world.
