Acknowledgement of Country

We acknowledge and respect the traditional custodians

whose ancestral lands we are meeting upon here today. We

acknowledge the deep feelings of attachment and

relationship of Aboriginal peoples to Country. We also pay

respects to the cultural authority of Aboriginal peoples

visiting from other areas of South Australia present here

today.

PrayerGod, you gave us Marcellin Champagnat as a fine example of

how ordinary people can do extraordinary things when they

make use of the gifts they have been given.

In the same way, you expect us to use the gifts that you have

given us so that we can make you present to the world.

Help us to invite you into our lives and to allow you to work

through us to touch the lives of the people we meet and serve.

Mary, our model of courageous faith, pray for us, your Family!

Amen.
