We formed a circle around the chalked Filipino flag, prayed a prayer in English and the 2 Filipino languages of our school, then enjoyed a bbq together for lunch. Thanks very much to Mr French and Mr Currie for barbecuing our sausages on such a beautiful sunny day!
Prayer: Loving
God of Justice and Peace
We remember
that today is Independence Day in the Philippines.
We are blessed
to have so many students and families from this beautiful culture here at
Sacred Heart.
We pray for our
Filipino families in Christchurch and New Zealand.
May they feel
the love and support from all of us here at Sacred Heart and from the
communities they live in.
We pray for
those in authority in the Philippines, that they will be guided to lead the
country in the values we hold dear - Peace, Love and Justice.
Amen
