High Schools Share Prayers
By Deb Daley
Mercy High School's community prayer, a reflection that is included in morning announcements distributed to students, faculty and staff, is a collaboration between the Catholic high schools in Omaha. It was organized by the high school campus ministers. Each school has taken turns having a student or other member of their community record a video of themselves reading or sharing a prayer. The campus ministers uses a Google document to organize their efforts and attach the links. These shared assets are then available to all schools to use in morning announcements.
"I think it is a great idea, and I am proud of our Omaha Catholic school community for demonstrating the collegiality that is so needed right now in our world," said Kristi Walters Wessling '88, principal.
There is a sample of this effort in the following link.
