Dear Parents and Caregivers of St Pius X, 

This weekend we will celebrate the Feast of Pentecost, a very special time in our Church. Pentecost reminds us of the day the Holy Spirit came to the disciples, filling them with courage, joy and the power to share Jesus’ message with the world. It is often called the "Birthday of the Church" because it marks the beginning of the disciples' mission to spread the Good News.

For our students, Pentecost is a wonderful reminder that the Holy Spirit is with us too—helping us to be kind, to make good choices, and to use our gifts to care for others. As we reflect on this joyful feast, let us pray that our school community continues to grow in faith, love and unity, just like the first followers of Jesus.

This is also a very special time for some of our Year 6 students who have received the Sacrament of Confirmation on Wednesday night. We congratulate and celebrate each of them as they are strengthened by the Holy Spirit and continue their journey of faith. May they always feel the guidance and love of God in their hearts and be a shining light in our school and wider community.

Wishing you all a blessed week ahead.

Lord God,

We thank You for Pope Leo XIV.

Grant him wisdom, strength, and a loving heart

to guide Your Church in truth and unity.

Protect him, inspire him, and fill him with Your Spirit,

that he may serve as a faithful shepherd to Your people.

Through Christ our Lord. 

Amen.
