A Prayer For the Second Week Of Advent
Father of all, so great is Your love for us that You gave us the gift of Your Son. He healed us, forgave us, and showed us the way to You. May we always know the joy and hope of His presence among us. We make this prayer in the name of Jesus, our Lord. Amen
December 8th is the Feast of the Immaculate Conception.
O most Holy Virgin, immaculate in body
and spirit, look kindly on me as I implore
your powerful intercession.
O most Holy Mother, receive my prayers
as I present them to God.
(state your intentions here)
O Mary, Mother of Jesus and our Mother,
you intercede for us with your Son.
O Mary conceived without sin,
pray for us who have recourse to thee.
Amen.
Student Council Advent Service Project
This year our school will be collecting $10 Gift Cards (Target, Walmart, Smiths, Vons, and Albertsons only) to benefit the St. Therese Center, sponsored by The Diocese of Las Vegas. St. Therese has been a long-standing service project of our school as we continue to support their mission emphasizing wellness by reaching out to those touched by HIV/AIDS, providing spiritual, physical, and emotional support, as well as educational and social services. We are asking each family to contribute to our Advent Service Project, which begins on Monday, November 28th and continues through December 15th. Thank you for your generosity and helping those who are less fortunate and in such great need, especially at this time.
To save you a trip to the store, there is a Gift Card Tree in the front office covered with $10 gift cards. Stop by and purchase one or more!
Thank you for your continuous support!
