As The Class of 2024 continues to grow in their leadership roll, each week they lead a Friday morning prayer service to prepare our student body to attend Friday morning Mass together.

At each prayer service, the Readings of the Day, The Gospel, Petitions, and some insights on the feast day or the readings are shared by individual 8th grade students.

With a teacher inservice day on Friday, Thursday was last week’s prayer service morning that landed on September 21, the United Nations Day of Peace, International Day of Peace.

8th Grade students described the meaning of the day and offered suggestions for how we can all be people promoting peace. Following the service, several 8th grade students returned to each classroom to complete a project reminding us all of the importance of peace.
