Weekly Gospel - Third Week of Advent - Matthew 11:2-11 New International Version (NIV)
When John, who was in prison, heard about the deeds of the Messiah, he sent his disciples to ask him, “Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?”
Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy
[a] are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised,
and the good news is proclaimed to the poor. Blessed is anyone who does not stumble on account of me.”
As John’s disciples were leaving, Jesus began to speak to the crowd about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swayed by the wind?
If not, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes?
No, those who wear fine clothes are in kings’ palaces. Then what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you,
and more than a prophet. This is the one about whom it is written:
VISION STATEMENT
To change the world through our faith in Jesus who is our light and hope.
SCHOOL MANAGER/CHAPLIN Father Greg Kennedy PRINCIPAL Mr Anthony O’Leary
P&F MEETINGS: 2nd & 7th Tuesday each Term
“‘I will send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.’ Truly I tell you, among those born
of women there has not risen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet whoever is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
‘A greater than John the Baptist has never been seen.’
When asked if he was the one that John the Baptised preached was coming, Jesus points to the signs of his minis-try: the blind regaining their sight, the lame walking, lepers cleansed, hearing restored to the deaf, and the dead brought back to life.
I want to thank the staff for their hard work this year and the way they make a difference in the lives of our students every day. We are blessed at SJP to have teachers, office staff, learning support, canteen, grounds and the leader-ship team who go above and beyond.
I thank all the parents and grandparents for their support this year and working in partnership with us. Your support of our school and the way many families volunteer their time over the year is greatly appreciated.
I wish all families a restful and refreshing break and a very Merry Christmas! We look forward to seeing you in 2020. Kinder and Year 6 students return Wednesday, 29th of January and Grades 1 to 5 return Thursday, 30th of January.
God Bless and have a wonderful Christmas. Anthony O’Leary
