Reflection
Does your life in Christ give you strength?
Does his love comfort you?
Do we share together in the Spirit?
Do you have mercy and kindness?
2 If so, make me very happy by having the same thoughts, sharing the same love, and having one mind and purpose. 3 When you do things, do not let selfishness or pride be your guide. Be humble and give more honour to others than to yourselves. 4 Do not be interested only in your own life but be interested in the lives of others. 5 In your lives you must think and act like Christ Jesus.
Philippians 2:1-5 International Children’s Version
Prayer of Blessing
God of all wisdom and knowledge,
We dedicate our College’s Strategic Plan,
Our guide for the next four years to your eternal work.
May our College continue to flourish as a community,
where students and staff entrusted to us
are inspired in their journey of faith and knowledge.
May those who travel beyond our gates do so in humble service to others.
We strive wholeheartedly to follow Christ, our teacher,
Who lives and reigns for ever and ever.
Amen
LENT: Project Compassion
Project Compassion is Caritas Australia’s main annual fundraising campaign. It mobilises Australians to raise much-needed funds to help alleviate poverty, promote justice and uphold dignity in the most vulnerable and marginalised communities in the world.
Held during Lent, the six-week period before Easter, OLSCC participates in a range of fundraising activities to support Caritas Australia’s programs both overseas and here with our First Australian partners.
Without the faith, empathy and generosity of supporters like us, Project Compassion could not do the vital work they do. Thank You!
