St Pius X Feast Day
St. Pius X's Feast Day is celebrated on August 21st. He was a Pope who worked hard to make the Church more accessible to everyone, especially children. Known for his love and dedication, he encouraged young people to receive Communion as early as possible and made many efforts to improve the way the Church helped people. On his Feast Day, we remember his kindness and commitment to helping others live a better life. It's a special time to reflect on his teachings and how we can follow his example in our own lives. Students will be marking this special feast day with an in class liturgy, followed by a day of celebration at Unanderra Oval.
PRAYER
Pope Saint Pius X, at your core, you were a pastor and a shepherd of souls who loved the poor and desired all people to come to know Christ. Pray for me, that I may be used by God for great things, by doing every small thing with great love. Pray for our Holy Father, the Roman Curia, all clergy and religious, and the entire Church. Pray also for the poor and abandoned, those without faith, and those newly converted. May your prayers win many souls for God, just as your actions did while you served Him on earth.
Pope Saint Pius X, pray for me.
Jesus, I trust in You.
