25th Anniversary of Sr Irene McCormack



Last Saturday, a number of staff and students were present for a Mass and morning tea to celebrate the life of Sr Irene. Today, Monday, is the 25th Anniversary of her funeral and I think that it is fitting that we stop each day this week and say her morning prayer, changed slightly into our McCormack House prayer.

God, my Father, you love and forgive me.
So, with Irene McCormack as my inspiration,
TODAY I accept all as gift -
and ask to find you Lord,
the Giver in the gift.
I choose to face life without fear
and to live wholeheartedly
in each present moment.
May my heart sing today
a song of grateful thanks and praise.
I am God's work of art!
I am precious in His sight.
Amen.
