Loreto Girls Dream of West
End Stage!!!!!
Most of you are probably aware that
the Loreto Convent Choir has taken
up the challenge of making it into
the last 20 choirs who will be judged
by Andrew Lloyd Webber in person.
The winning choir will appear on the
final night of the Joseph competition
and will appear on the West End stage
for a special ‘Children in Need’
performance. Due to the exceptionally
high traffic the site is receiving,
voting has been suspended until Monday
21st May and will now continue until
Friday 25th May The final twenty choirs
will be announced on Tuesday 29th
May. To help Loreto turn their dream
into reality they need your votes.
To register your vote go to www.bbc.co.uk/joseph/competition.

Re-interment of Tyrone &
Fermanagh Hospital Graveyard
The site for the new hospital includes
‘Moore’s Hill’ which
contains a graveyard where up to the
mid 1940’s patients from the
old hospital were buried. To pay due
respect to those buried on the site,
a re-interment is required . The Western
Trust is eager to ensure that the
re-interment is carefully planned,
and handled with the sensitivity that
a task of this nature demands. The
Trust is particularly interested in
those who may have relatives buried
in the graveyard and would prefer
to make private arrangements. For
further information, please contact
Anita McConnell on 028 8283 5891 or
anita.mcconnell @westerntrust.hscni.net.
As part of Adult
Learners Week (21st-25th May),
Omagh College will have an information
stand with details of Essential Skills
courses. If you are interested in
improving your reading, writing and
maths skills and gain a qualification,
please call in at the college or contact

Prayer Before Exams
Dear Father, Source
of all wisdom,
help me to use my time and my intelligence
wisely
as I prepare for exams.
Help me to dispose myself to listen
to your Holy Spirit
so that you, as my loving Father,
may place me in a state of prayer
and lead me to understand
that the supreme wisdom
is knowing I am your child.
Help me to remain serene
so that my work may truly reflect
this profound truth
Mary, Mother of my spiritual life,
guide me in the ways of your Son,
so that my work may help
to transform this world for His glory.
Amen
Praying...and Waiting...and
Patience
Let us ponder for a moment
Life's three seasons:
Praying...and waiting...and patience.
Life's unpredictable seasons.
The season of praying,
When we bring our concerns and worries
And lay them at Jesus' feet.
Crying out for God's help in our time
of need.
The season of waiting,
When our timing is so much different
than God's.
When we think we have waited too long
And yet there is more waiting to be
done.
The season of patience,
When waiting and patience meet.
You cannot have one without the other.
They must go hand-in-hand.
Welcome prayer...and waiting...and
patience
For we know God is teaching us
And using them for our good
To bring about His perfect will for
our lives.
