The DePaul Catholic School

In Celebration

We pray, O Lord, for change.

Jesus you revealed God through your wise words and loving deeds,

and we encounter you still today in the faces of those whom society has pushed to the margins.

Guide us, through the love you revealed,

to establish the justice you proclaimed,

that all peoples might dwell in harmony and peace,

united by that one love that binds you to each other, and to you.

And most of all, Lord, change our routine worship and work into genuine encounter with you and our better selves so that our lives will be changed for the good of all.

Good and gracious God, you give us St. Louise as a model and intercessor. May we follow her example of trust in your constant presence in our lives. May we place our uncertainty, fear, and helplessness in your hands, as she did.
Sr. Marge, thank you for being such a devoted advocate of DePaul. Like St. Louise, you are a living example of faith, service, and compassion. Your witness is a constant reminder of the values we strive to live out each day.

There is nothing like a strong support system to start the day! ❤️ A massive thank you to all the dads and father figures who joined us this morning to cheer on our scholars as they begin MAP testing.
Seeing your leadership and encouragement at the front doors reminds our scholars that they have a whole community behind them. Let’s go, scholars! You’ve got this. 📝✨
