OPENING PRAYER

DEAR GOD,

HELP US TO FOLLOW IN YOUR FOOTSTEPS, AND TO LIVE EVERY DAY THAT WE ARE GIVEN WITH INTEGRITY. GUIDE US TO DO THE RIGHT THING EVEN WHEN NO ONE’S WATCHING. GIVE US THE COURAGE WE NEED TO MAKE THE RIGHT

  • CHOICES. GIVE US THE POWER TO IGNORE ANY PEOPLE THAT TRY TO BULLY US

INTO MAKING WRONG DECISIONS AND REMIND US TO STAY ON YOUR PATH. TEACH US THAT DOING THE RIGHT THING MIGHT BE DIFFICULT, OVERWHELMING OR EVEN EMBARRASSING, BUT REMIND US THAT YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THERE BESIDE US WHEN WE NEED HELP. TEACH US THAT IT DOESN’T MATTER HOW POOR, RICH, EDUCATED, POPULAR OR COOL WE ARE. WHAT DEFINES US IS HOW WE TREAT ONE ANOTHER WHEN NO ONE IS WATCHING. WHAT DEFINES US…….IS HOW WE LIVE WITH INTEGRITY. AMEN

How Does it Work?

  • Students will receive order forms on FEBRUARY 1st
  • All funds to be collected and brought to school by March 15th (cash or

cheques) along with completed order forms

  • Students will pick up their orders for delivery approximately 1 week later

(date TBD) at the school. Why Simple Simon Pies?

  • Meals and items are made fresh and pre-packaged (then frozen)
  • Gluten free options available
  • Each order will generate approx 30% profit per student
  • Each student gets to use the profits to reduce their own trip fees – the

more you sell, the less you pay!

CLOSING PRAYER

DEAR GOD, I AM FAR TOO OFTEN INFLUENCED BY WHAT OTHERS THINK OF ME. I AM ALWAYS PRETENDING TO EITHER BE RICHER, SMARTER OR NICER THAN I REALLY AM. PLEASE PREVENT ME FROM TRYING TO ATTRACT ATTENTION. DON’T LET ME GLOAT OVER PRAISE OR BE DISCOURAGED BY CRITICISM. SHOW ME HOW TO BE HUMBLE OF HEART LIKE YOU. HELP ME TO BE OBEDIENT AND READY TO DO YOUR WILL. MOST OF ALL HELP ME TO BELIEVE IN YOUR REVELATIONS. SHOW ME YOUR WAYS AND TEACH ME YOUR PATH. LET MY HEART ALWAYS IMITATE YOUR HUMILITY. AMEN
