Back
to School – A Student’s Prayer
O Lord,
the holidays are over, and I’m going back to
school again. I thank you for everyone who has taught
me and for all I have learned up until now. Help me
to use this term wisely and to use it well. Help me
to use to the full the opportunities of learning that
will come to me in the future. All through this term
help me to be friendly to my fellow pupils and respectful
towards my teachers. Help me to work hard and to play
fairly, so that I may be a good citizen of my school.
I make this prayer through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Pope John Paul II Awards
On Monday 1st
and Tuesday 2nd March, hundreds of young people from
all over the diocese of Derry received Pope John Paul
II awards from Abbot Edmund Power OSB who is abbot of
St. Paul’s outside the Walls, Rome. To receive
the award, it was required they spend a period of time
serving their local parish and also taking part in community
or charity work. They included four students representing
this parish of Leckpatrick – Anne-Marie Devine,
Emma Conway, Maeve Duffy and Conor McLaughlin. We congratulate
them and thank them for their dedication to their parish
and community, and we offer our congratulations to our
own Fr. Paul Farren, who, with his excellent team, organised
the event in a most professional manner.
