Ordinary Time
God of peace and justice,
we pray for the people of Ukraine today.
We pray for peace and the laying down of weapons.
We pray for all those who fear for tomorrow,
that your Spirit of comfort would draw near to them.
We pray for those with power over war or peace,
for wisdom, discernment and compassion to guide their decisions.
Above all, we pray for all your precious children, at risk and in fear,
that you would hold and protect them.
We pray in the name of Jesus, the Prince of Peace.
Amen.
St. Mary’s School is the Farmington Valley's only Catholic school for grades K-8 and in 2018 was recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as a Blue Ribbon School (the only non-public school in New England to receive the designation!)
Offering a unique blending of traditional academics and 21st century technology, St. Mary's challenges today's students to actively master subject matter. Encouraged to lead and taught to serve, students graduate with confidence, well prepared for secondary education and to assume the rights and responsibilities of Christian young adults.
