COLLEGE PRAYER SPECIALISM SUCCESS
Congratulations to all the primary schools competing in The Time 2 Change Competition this year. Y12 BTEC Business students from All Hallows have enjoyed a fantastic time going out to each of the schools competing and have judged the best team to come forward to The Final Celebration at All Hallows on 3 March 2016. As part of their Event Organisation Unit they are currently making final preparations for what is sure to be a very enjoyable and exciting day. The challenge they will face is a secret until the day and in the meantime Y12 Business students are organising trophies, judges, catering and much more.
Prayer for Fairtrade Fortnight, Feb 23 - March 13 God of solidarity, You entrusted the earth and its resources to the stewardship of humankind. Yet the goods of creation, destined for the whole human race, are enjoyed by a privileged few. For the producers of our consumer goods there are no privileges; just working long hours for little pay. For us, who benefit from unfair trade, we take for granted the toils of men and women who maintain our standard of living. Inspired by Jesus who brought good news to the poor, show us how we may stand in solidarity with people who suffer through unjust trading rules. May they soon experience the joy of the vineyard workers who were called to be the first among the last, and were included as equal inheritors of your kingdom. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen. Tony Singleton/CAFOD
