St Chad’s Parish Prayer
Thank you Loving Father, for having created us and given us to each other in our parish family.
Thank you for being with us in all our joys and sorrows and for your comfort in our sadness, your companionship in our loneliness.
Thank you for yesterday, today and tomorrow and for the whole of our lives. Thank you for our priests, our friends, for health and for grace.
May we live this and every day conscious of Your mercy and all that has been given to us . Amen
Magister Adest Et Vocat Te
Above the door of our church, you will read the words, Magister Adest Et Vocat Te which means, The Master is Here and He is Calling You.
In answering the call and entering our church you will be generously welcomed by the priests and people of the parish.
