Today, our school community celebrates Pentecost, the powerful feast that marks the end of the Easter season and the beginning of the Church as we know it. Fifty days after Jesus’ Resurrection, the Holy Spirit - the Paraclete, our comforter, teacher, and guide came upon the disciples as promised. It was on this day that the Church was truly born, ignited by divine fire and filled with God’s Spirit. We reflect on this sacred moment in praying: Breathe in me, O Holy Spirit, That my thoughts may all be holy. Act in me, O Holy Spirit, That my work, too, may be holy. Draw my heart, O Holy Spirit, That I love but what is holy. Strengthen me, O Holy Spirit, To defend all that is holy. Guard me, then, O Holy Spirit, That I always may be holy. Amen. --

On Saturday, we celebrated the Feast of the Visitation, remembering the moment Mary visited her cousin Elizabeth after the Annunciation. At Mary’s greeting, Elizabeth filled with the Holy Spirit recognised her as the Mother of the Lord, and the unborn John the Baptist leapt in her womb. In response, Mary proclaimed the Magnificat, her joyful hymn of praise: "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour…" (Lk 1:46) This feast reminded us of Mary's faith, humility, and her role in bringing Christ to the world. It also highlighted the sacredness of life in the womb and the beauty of serving others with love. Together we pray: O Mary, you visited your cousin Elizabeth to share the joy of the Incarnation. Help us to recognise the presence of Christ in our lives and to bring His love to those we meet. You brought the light of Christ to Elizabeth’s home. May we bring the light of Christ to our families and communities. Through your visitation, the Holy Spirit filled your cousin Elizabeth. Pray for us, that we too may be filled with the Holy Spirit and proclaim the greatness of the Lord. O Mary, you are the Mother of our Lord and our Mother. Pray for us, that we may grow in faith, hope, and love, and bring Christ to the world.

Today, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord, marking the moment Christ ascended into heaven to sit at the right hand of the Father. The Ascension is a vital part of Christ’s mission to redeem us and share His Divine life. As Jesus Himself said in Luke 22:69, “The Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.” Let us rejoice in this great hope and promise! Together we pray: Lord Jesus, You who in your ascension filled the Eleven with joy, make us worthy of that same joy through your prayer and your mercy. Lord Jesus, You who in your ascension bore our fragile humanity into heaven and opened for us the way that leads to Heaven, fill us with the joy of serenity and peace. Lord Jesus, You who by ascending into heaven clothed us with the gift of the Holy Spirit, make us your witnesses in our daily lives telling of the joy of your Mercy. Amen

Today on the 24th of May, we honour the feast of Our Lady Help of Christians, patroness of Australia. Chosen by early Catholics in times of struggle, Mary became a source of hope and strength for a young nation in need. She was entrusted to us by Jesus as our mother, one who walks with us in hardship, guiding us to her Son with love and care. Like those before us, we turn to Mary today, asking for her help, protection, and inspiration to live with faith and courage. Our Lady Help of Christians, pray for us.
