GCSEs

Pray for all children who are going through GCSEs. Pray especially for those who have gone through a modern educational system which has created fine young people who care deeply for their fellow human beings but don't seem to realise that public examinations are important. Yes: I have one all of my own, and I am more nervous than I was when I was taking my own O Levels. Coming away from school full of the Gifts of the Holy Ghost is fine: coming away with six or seven A* to Cs would be nice too.

    Prayers offered. Try invoking St Philomena... she's a patron and protectress of the young.

    Thanks, Mac. She will join St Dominic Savio in being bothered, and rebothered with supplications from yours truly.
