Tomorrow is the Feast of St. Andrew, who was a disciple of St. John the Baptist. Andrew told his brother Simon Peter that he had found the Messiah. Andrew was among the Twelve Apostles Jesus chose. @StAndrew_ycdsb is in Vaughan.

During the month of November we have continued to explore the virtue of justice and what it means to be a responsible citizen. Lord, help us to lead our world in the ways of justice and peace. Help us to be at peace with ourselves, our families, friends and neighbours.

Many thanks to the construction class students of Sacred Heart and teacher Mr. Kowalchuk, for building this beautiful new cross, one that will now sit in our main display at the Catholic Education Centre, reflecting that we are called to centre ourselves and our work in Christ.🙏

God of Charity and Justice, We often ask the question, “What would Jesus do?” Help us today to have the wisdom to answer this question and to act on doing the right and loving thing. With your guidance we know we can follow in your footsteps. Amen.
