If you have any old school photos (1933+) that we may copy and use in our exhibition we would be glad to hear from you.

VOCATION PRAYER

Lord, make me a better person, more considerate towards others, more honest with myself, more faithful to you. Make me generous enough to want to do your will, whatever it may be. Help me find my true vocation in life and grant that through it, I may find happiness myself and bring happiness to others. We pray through Christ our Lord, AMEN

Family Vocation Prayer

Jesus, you are the Good Shepherd who is always mindful of your Church. Watch over those who are baptised in your name, and grant peace and harmony to all families. Bless all parents, and help them to find peace and happiness through their vocation. We ask you to help all young people to discover the vocation that will enable them to live life to the full as they become their best selves in the service of God’s Kingdom; We make this prayer in your name, Amen.
