Our Lady Help of Christian’s Feast Day 24th May

This year our school Feast Day is on a Saturday, so we’ll celebrate it as a school on Friday 23rd May.  This will be a wonderful day of celebration for us. In our next Newsletter, I will include some information about the history of the Feast of Our Lady Help of Christians.  For now, I will share the plan for the day below as we hope to have as many families as possible join us for the celebrations. 

Feast Day

A Blessing

May God bless all mothers and those who mother others
with strength, patience, and enduring love.
May they be cherished for their care,
upheld in times of challenge,
and celebrated for the countless ways they give life,
nurture faith, and inspire hope.
May Mary, our heavenly Mother, walk beside them always,
guiding their hearts with wisdom, gentleness, and grace.
Amen.

I hope all Mothers and Mother figures are spoilt on Sunday, and I wish you a joy-filled day.
