DAY 2
MORNING PRAYER
Our focus this
Advent season is on sharing the love that comes from the Christ Child. Since
our spiritual theme this year is, “Encountering Christ”,
we want to focus more on the love of the Holy Family this Advent season, and
think about how we can use their love for each other and God as examples in our
daily lives. Today, let us focus on Joseph,
the earthly father of Jesus
Loving Father,
Thank you for
the example of St. Joseph in the way he cared for his family.
As we embrace
sharing faith this Advent season,
help
us to care for others in our family and community.
Give us the
strength to do the right things,
even when it is
difficult.
Help us to
prepare our hearts during Advent,
so we can truly
welcome the Christ Child at Christmas.
Through Christ
our Lord,
Amen

KARATE CLASSES
Are you passionate about creating awareness and pursuing reconciliation in your community? Join the Reconciliation Project with CBYF Prince Albert! Open to students in grades 10-12, the task is for students to research their own culture, or another culture of their choice, and create a bridge between colonial experiences in Canada and worldwide. This will include understanding the historical facts of real events, how those events have affected cultural groups, and what that means for reconciliation efforts and pursuing a healthy dialogue and healing. Students are to create a three-part project and incorporate their ideas and research into:
(1) a video or essay to present your research
(2) an art piece that will represent your chosen research culture and the pursuit of reconciliation, and
(3) a short story or poem that will support your art piece.
