The NPCAT Summer Camp 2021 Song

2nd August 2021Oliver Whittell

We’re proud to present a very special memento of an unforgettable week.

Musicians Joe and Joanna, from Children of Praise, helped the children at the hugely successful NPCAT Sport Summer Camp write this beautiful song, My Future’s in Front of Me.

Talented filmmaker Jodie Canwell created the fantastic video that goes with our song. Like us, we think you’ll be singing the melody all weekend!
Thanks again to the staff, pupils and families who played a part in our Summer Camp, which was praised by both pupils and parents. We’re so proud of all of you!

✨ Feast of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary ✨

“Blessed is she who believed that the Lord would fulfill His promises to her.” – Luke 1:45

Today, we celebrate Mary’s visit to her cousin Elizabeth, a moment of joy, faith and charity. In her humility, Mary brought Christ to others even before He was born. Her yes to God reminds us to share His love with those around us.

Let us follow Mary’s example by carrying Christ to our neighbours, offering encouragement and rejoicing in God’s blessings together. 💛

🌟 Happy Trinity Sunday! 🌟

Today, we celebrate the Most Holy Trinity - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - three Persons in one God, a mystery of love beyond our full understanding. 💖

Let us reflect on the eternal love that flows within the Trinity and extends to each of us. May we live in that love, share it with others and always remember that God is with us: guiding, redeeming and inspiring. ✝️

🙏 “Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.”

🌿 Feast of St Augustine of Canterbury 🌿

Today, we celebrate St Augustine of Canterbury, the “Apostle to the English,” who brought the light of Christ to the people of England in the 6th century. 🙏

Sent by Pope Gregory the Great, St Augustine’s courage, faith and humility remind us that even in new and unfamiliar places, the love of God can transform hearts. 💛

Let us ask for his intercession to guide missionaries, strengthen our own witness to Christ and bring unity and peace to all communities. ✝️

"Behold, I am sending you… to bring the light of Christ to others." – Inspired by St Augustine’s mission

✨LOURDES PILGRIMAGE ✨

✈️🙏 Representatives from right across the #NPCATFamily are making the annual pilgrimage to Lourdes this week to embark on a truly special spiritual journey. 💙

Every year, millions of pilgrims flock to this holy site seeking solace, healing and hope. Together, staff and pupils will be on hand to help those in need, join in prayer and make memories to last a life time. This week, we join thousands of young people from around the world in prayer, service and friendship at this very special place where Our Lady appeared to St Bernadette. 🌹✨

Together, we’ll walk in faith, deepen our love for Christ and open our hearts to the message of Lourdes: “Do whatever He tells you” (John 2:5). 💒✝️💜

Please keep us in your prayers as we carry with us the intentions of our families, friends and school community. 🕊️💛

📖✨ Feast of St Bede the Venerable ✨📖

Today, we celebrate St Bede, the “Father of English History,” whose life reminds us of the power of faith, study and prayer. A monk, scholar and teacher, St Bede devoted his life to understanding God’s truth and sharing it with the world.

🙏 Reflection:
St Bede teaches us that faith and intellect can go hand in hand. Through reading, writing and prayer, he showed that knowledge is a gift when used to glorify God and serve others.

📚💡 Let us pray today for wisdom, clarity and a heart open to God’s word, so that like St Bede, we may bring light to those around us.

“Better one little book with God’s grace than many without it.” – St Bede
