I show Service when I…

When I pick up rubbish at school

When I help younger children on the playground at school

When I write a new prayer and share it with my family or my class

When I help around home – maybe helping with the dishes or washing, tidying my room and my toys

When I donate some of my old toys to St Vincent de Paul who can them give to other children who don’t have many toys

Service Prayer
Rato/Awhina

Before the Last Supper, Jesus knelt down and washed the feet of his disciples. He said this was an example for them, and that whoever wanted to be first among them must be ready fa be the least and the servant of all. May we learn from Jesus how, to put the needs of others first, and to use the gifts we have received to enrich their lives. We pray in Mercy’s name. Amen.
