This week, Staff head to the Bunya Mountains for retreat to reflect on the work we are doing in the College for our LYF program.  We pray together that we can do the work of God here on Earth with our students: 

Christ has no body but yours, 
No hands, no feet on earth but yours, 
Yours are the eyes with which he looks 
Compassion on this world, 
Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good, 
Yours are the hands, with which he blesses all the world. 
Yours are the hands, yours are the feet, 
Yours are the eyes, you are his body. 
Christ has no body now but yours, 
No hands, no feet on earth but yours, 
Yours are the eyes with which he looks 
compassion on this world. 
Christ has no body now on earth but yours.  

Teresa of Avila (1515–1582)  

Intergenerational/Intercultural Wisdom needed 

OLSCC are seeking interested persons to be a part of a PRAXIS initiative with Year 9 students, running from Term 2 until the end of the year. The project will involve developing relationships with students, sharing stories, interests and wisdom. Participants will then be interviewed over a series of sessions in order to create films about their life which they will be gifted at the end of the project. Sessions will take place at OLSCC on Wednesdays from 12:30pm – 1:30pm. We hope this project will assist students to learn from other members of the community who have experienced different generations and cultures and strengthen the bonds of our St Joseph’s Parish/OLSCC community. If interested, please contact Cate Brennan (Cate.Brennan@twb.catholic.edu.au) or Nicholas Blauw (Nicholas.Blauw@twb.catholic.edu.au) or call 0746724111 for more information.
