| “Stand Firm in the Faith” | | http://www.qofa.qld.edu.au/latest-news/Pages/“Stand-firm-in-the-faith”.aspx | “Stand Firm in the Faith” | <p style="text-align:justify;"><img class="ms-rteImage-2 ms-rtePosition-1" alt="Stand Firm in the Faith1.png" src="/latest-news/PublishingImages/Stand%20Firm%20in%20the%20Faith1.png" style="margin:5px;" /><strong class="ms-rteStyle-Accent1">“Stand firm in the faith"</strong><br></p><p style="text-align:justify;">Paul calls the church to stand firm. Be steadfast. Resolute. To stand our ground and stand on God's Word no matter what circumstances bring. We find these same words in <a href="https://biblia.com/bible/esv/2%20Thess%202.15"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">2 Thessalonians 2:15</span></a>:</p><p style="text-align:justify;"> “<em>So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter."</em></p><p style="text-align:justify;"><strong class="ms-rteStyle-Accent1">“Be courageous"</strong></p><p style="text-align:justify;">Paul calls the church to be courageous. To have courage of heart—no matter the difficulty, danger or pain—to act in accordance with our beliefs. The church is in a battle. God wants well-trained, well-equipped leaders who are courageous enough to live what they believe. Who will step up to the plate and speak up for the church?<br></p><p style="text-align:justify;"><strong class="ms-rteStyle-Accent1">“Be strong"</strong><br></p><p style="text-align:justify;">Paul calls the church to be strong in the midst of strife and persecution. It's a call to have a strong will, a strong body and a strong mind. To be Capable - Able to move and stand up against all odds. But it's not being strong in ourselves. The strength we need here is a strength beyond what we can muster ourselves. It's God's strength.<br></p><p><br><br></p> | | | | |
| Welcome 2019 | | http://www.qofa.qld.edu.au/latest-news/Pages/Welcome-2019.aspx | Welcome 2019 | <p style="text-align:justify;"><img class="ms-rteImage-2 ms-rtePosition-1" alt="Welcome1.png" src="/latest-news/PublishingImages/Welcome1.png" style="margin:5px;" /><span style="margin:0px;color:black;line-height:107%;font-size:14pt;">The
staff of Queen of Apostles attended the Parish Mass last Friday morning and
received a blessing from Fr Denis and the parishioners. We were anointed and
sealed with the sign of the cross, we were encouraged to go out into our school
community and continue to follow in the wisdom of our God as we strive to
embrace a community of unity, love, simplicity, faithful listening and
hospitality. It was lovely to see students, parents and grandparents attend
this Mass to offer their support for the staff of Q of A. Together
parishioners, parents, staff and community members contribute to the Catholic
education of each of our students. It is through engaged and inspiring
communities that all participants flourish.</span></p><p style="margin:0px 0px 10.66px;text-align:justify;"><span style="margin:0px;color:black;line-height:107%;font-size:14pt;">We
are very blessed at Queen of Apostles to have such a nurturing and supportive
staff. Teachers lead, guide and support our students to reach their full
potential and gently encourage them to take action and reach out to everyone,
regardless of their differences.</span></p><div style="text-align:justify;">
<span style="margin:0px;color:black;line-height:107%;font-family:"calibri",sans-serif;font-size:14pt;">We wish you and your children a very positive
start to 2019 and we warmly welcome our new families and staff to Queen of
Apostles. We are looking forward to walking and working with you and your
children this year. </span></div><p><br> </p> | | | | |
