We will be celebrating the virtue of Kindness, as a school community, on Thursday, June 18 @ 11:00 a.m.
Georges Vanier School Prayer
Act of Charity
Lord, in the morning as we start this day,
We take a moment to bow and pray.
We start with thanks,
For all your kind and loving ways.
And now as we begin our day,
Watch over us as we work and play.
We ask you to help us respect and love one another,
And all we meet during the day.
Hold our families and school staff in your hands,
As we follow, in your commands.
Teach us to love you more than before,
Through random acts of love and kindness.
Guide us to be like Georges Vanier,
And make a difference by
Helping the poor, the needy, the sick and the homeless.
We ask thisVISIT
through Jesus, Our Lord.
O my God, I love you above all things with
my whole heart and soul because you are all
good and worthy of all my love.
New for the next school year:
School Parish: St. John Fisher
Pastor: Fr. Grima
I love my neighbor as myself for the love of

“Go Make A Difference”
I forgive all who have injured me and ask
pardon of all whom I have injured. Amen.
