School Prayer
Dear Lord,
We thank you for our gifts and talents.
Help us to strive to use them wisely for the benefit of our special community.
Guide us to fulfil your plan for each of us.
Give us the grace to be humble, respectful and tolerant this day and all the days of our lives.

Pray for us
AMEN
Jubilee Year Prayer
Father in heaven,
may the faith you have given us
in your son, Jesus Christ, our brother,
and the flame of charity enkindled
in our hearts by the Holy Spirit,
reawaken in us the blessed hope
for the coming of your Kingdom.
May your grace transform us
into tireless cultivators of the seeds of the Gospel.
May those seeds transform from within both humanity and the whole cosmos
in the sure expectation
of a new heaven and a new earth,
when, with the powers of Evil vanquished,
your glory will shine eternally.
May the grace of the Jubilee
reawaken in us, Pilgrims of Hope,
a yearning for the treasures of heaven.
May that same grace spread
the joy and peace of our Redeemer
throughout the earth.
To you our God, eternally blessed,
be glory and praise for ever.
Amen

Charity Work
Being generous and grateful are two values of our Catholic Pupil Profile which are visited often but particularly times when we support charities. Remember the Catholic Social teachings, raising money for those less fortunate is a crucial part of being at St Peter’s.
