DAY 2
MORNING PRAYER
Today is the feast day of St. Catherine of Siena – the
namesake of our very own St. Catherine Catholic School in the school division. For those students
who had a chance to attend St. Catherine, today is a day to celebrate.
Loving God,
Thank you for the example of St. Catherine.
Her words and actions show us
how to live a life filled with love of you and others.
May the words of St. Catherine,
who challenge us to be who God meant us to be,
inspire us to love the person we are.
Through Christ our Lord,
AmenSCHOOL SUPERVISION
