ANZAC Liturgy

You are invited to a special St Benedict's Children's ANZAC Liturgy Thursday 30th April 6.30pm in place of our traditional whole school ANZAC Liturgy. To allow for this liturgy to be interactive Fr Dan has created a ZOOM meeting.

To allow everyone to feel connected, each child is invited to collect a candle, rosemary and copy of the liturgy from the school (between 11am-4pm) this Thursday. Please email Nat Wright if you would like to collect a pack for your child/ren (natalie.zarb@cg.catholic.edu.au). Alternatively, you can use a family candle and access a copy of the liturgy via SZapp. 

Prayer for those who serve

Loving God,

we pray for all those who serve in the Australian Defence Force,

and especially for those soldiers, sailors, airmen and women

serving overseas at this time.

Grant them meaning and purpose in their work,

may they know the support and respect of our nation,

and maintain their compassion, humanity and well-being

when confronted with traumatic tasks.

Watch over them and bring them back safe to us.

Keep their families and relationships strong in times of separation.

This we pray in Jesus’ name.  Amen.
