The Order of the Knights of St. Gregory is a prestigious honour of the Catholic Church, given to Catholic men and women who have demonstrated exceptional service to Church and society, either through personal witness of faith or through works in various fields, like education, medicine, art or public service.

With thanks to Joe for all his service, we're happy to celebrate as he receives these honours. A light reception will follow the Mass and installation.

A Prayer for Catholic Education

We are many, we are one; we all form one body in Christ.

Lord,when we see the one before us, let us reverence your presence within;

when we listen to one another, let us hear with our hearts;

when we reflect on each encounter, may we discern to understand;

when we learn from those around us, let us respect our differences with joy;

and when we act, may we be kind and generous to all,

for each person is a member of your body, with all that they are.

We are many, we are one. Amen.
