Making Jesus Real through RESPECT

We are made in God’s image. We each have a God-given dignity. Every one of us is precious and has the right to be valued, cared for and respected. Each of us also has the responsibility to respect others. No-one knew this better than Jesus. He was the first to tell humankind to love our neighbour. And he lived his life according to this. Every thought, word and deed reflected his love and respect for every single person, even his enemies.

Catholics believe human beings are not only made in God’s image but are made to be channels of god’s love with the help of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. They believe that Jesus works through people and creation to bring goodness and peace.

As a Catholic school, we look to Jesus as our model. We are His representatives, and our actions should reflect His values. We are to be the image of Jesus. We are to MAKE JESUS REAL to all those around us. Making Jesus Real is a way of life that allows students to see Jesus working in their lives through people and creation. It is about being a witness and sharing Jesus’ love with others.
