One
of the great benefits of attending St.Dominic Catholic Secondary School
is that chaplaincy services are available to you on site throughout the
school year. We have a chaplaincy team leader who is there to serve
your spiritual needs.
Promoting Spiritual Development
Our chaplaincy team leader coordinates
a wide range of activities that helps promote the spiritual development
of students and staff at our school:
- prepare and leads prayer and classroom chapel visits in the school. They organize eucharistic celebrations and prepares for the observation and celebration of the special seasons and feasts that take place in our Church’s liturgical year
- maintains an important link with the local Parishes.
- oversees our school’s retreat program
- fosters an awareness of social justice and encourages students to respond
Connection to You
Our chaplaincy team leader will work to enhance your learning experience
by focusing on Gospel values and Catholic Christian attitudes through
work in the classroom, during school liturgies and planned retreat
experiences.
They are also available for spiritual direction and support. Students
who experience loss due to a death, separation or divorce in their
family or any other issue can find great comfort and support by turning
to the school chaplaincy team leader. By
having our chaplaincy team leader as part of the high school resource
team, we are able to focus on the school community's spiritual
development.
