Isn’t it grand to be young and fit!! This was one way to cool down over the Bank Holiday weekend. Jack Ring was able to do all sorts of flips and acrobatics during the few seconds he was in mid air.

Tomorrow is the start of the Junior and Leaving Cert Exams. It’s an anxious time for everyone involved. Here is a short prayer to help us through the coming days and weeks‚Ķ‚Ķ

Loving God, I turn to you today. As the exam approaches I am nervous and so I ask you to help me. You know how important these exams are to me. Set me free from worry, give me your peace and help me to think clearly. Help me to remember what I have learned, to use my time well, not to panic, to do my best and not to worry about the outcome. Help me to realise that the exams are not there to catch me out but to find out how much I know. Lord, keep me calm so that I can write down all I know! Keep my friends calm too, we’re all in this together. Let me sleep each night so that I am refreshed and renewed for the next exam. Even if I struggle I must always remember that there is a bigger picture of which these exams are only a small part of. Most important of all calm me down, keep me focussed, guide me along, get me through the scary moments and make sure I attempt every question. Thank you for being my friend today and always. Amen
