“For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope.”
Jeremiah 29:11
Pilgrims of Hope
Welcome to the Bishop Hogarth Catholic Education Trust Liturgy website. You will find resources to aid prayer and reflection for schools within the Trust. The Pastoral Theme that will guide our prayer and action during the Academic Year 2023/24 is ‘Christ Lives in Me.’
One of the key messages is that young people should not be afraid to dream big and make a difference. The Pope says, "Dear young people, do not bury your talents, the gifts that God has given you! Do not be afraid to dream of great things!" This quote reminds young people to believe in themselves and use their unique gifts and talents for the benefit of others.
Pope Francis states, "If you listen to Jesus and follow his voice, you will be able to realize your talents in the best way." This encourages young people to be attentive to the needs of others, to listen with empathy, and to build relationships based on respect and understanding.
