Our Father

Our Father Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.

as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Amen

Prayer for our School

Lord Jesus, we pray for all who work at our School, for our teachers and our students, for those who prepare our food, for those who clean up after us, for those who work in the offices, for those who give up their spare time for us, for those who work on the grounds, for those who work at long meetings in the evenings. We ask you to bless them. Amen

Dear God, help us to make our School a caring School. Help us to remember that everyone has an important part to play. Help us all to respect each other and work together, so that our School will be a happy place for us all.

Nicene Creed

I believe in one God, the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial
with the Father;
Through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate
of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.

For our sake he was crucified
under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son
is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic,
and apostolic Church.
I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection
of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Hail Mary full of grace………And the word was made flesh
And dwelt among us.
Hail Mary…
Pray for us, O holy mother of God
That we may be made worthy Of the promises of Christ.
Let us pray:
Pour forth, we beseech thee, O Lord,
Thy grace into our hearts,
That we, to whom the incarnation of Christ, thy son,
Was made known by the message of an angel
May, by his passion and cross,
Be brought to the glory of his resurrection,

Through the same Christ our Lord Amen
