Prayers that Conclude the Fratelli Tutti Encyclical A Prayer to the Creator Lord, Father of our human family, you created all human beings equal in dignity: pour forth into our hearts a fraternal spirit and inspire in us a dream of renewed encounter, dialogue, justice and peace. Move us to create healthier societies and a more dignified world, a world without hunger, poverty, violence and war. May our hearts be open to all the peoples and nations of the earth. May we recognize the goodness and beauty that you have sown in each of us, and thus forge bonds of unity, common projects, and shared dreams. Amen. An Ecumenical Christian Prayer O God, Trinity of love, from the profound communion of your divine life, pour out upon us a torrent of fraternal love. Grant us the love reflected in the actions of Jesus, in his family of Nazareth, and in the early Christian community. 26 Today’s Marists Magazine
Will your legacy be the momentum that continues our Marist ministries? DONOR THOUGHTS Why I Support the Marists by Tammy and Brandon Mosley (Left to right) Tammy, Afton, Kennedy and Brandon Mosley The Mosley family supports the Marists because as a family of Marist School in Atlanta, Georgia we owe them a debt of heartfelt gratitude, and it feels like a small way to say “Thank you.” The Marists who have been the heart of Marist School for more than 122 years are the foundation of what makes Marist School so special. The Marist presence is a source of immense joy and comfort to the school community. Their legacy of assembling a superior group of teachers, coaches and administrators over the years to care for and nurture the Marist students provides us with a sense of joy and comfort when our children leave for school each day or attend any event sponsored by the school. The Marist School priests, teachers, coaches and administrators have worked like a well-oiled machine to produce Christ-centered young men and women over many years, and we are happy to say that our children will be a product of this wonderful educational institution. While most people in the Atlanta community (and beyond) know Marist School for its reputation of offering superior academics and its athletic successes, the school provides so much more to the families of students through its love and support for them. Our children genuinely love being at Marist School anytime there is an opportunity to participate in an event, as they feel like they are part of a family away from home. The teachers, coaches and priests are examples to the students through their care, love, support and generosity of their time. Throughout our children’s time at Marist School, teachers have regularly taken their personal time on nights and weekends to offer additional instruction before exams, so that the students feel fully prepared. Marist teachers extend their caring and nurturing to matters outside of the classroom as well. Our children have had teachers willing to give of their time to discuss colleges, to assist them with letters to colleges as well as share in their joys. Other teachers and priests at the school offer time to mentor and guide students through reconciliation services and retreats, and offer other guidance on matters important to teens. In addition, several teachers and alumni give a tremendous amount of their time to the school’s athletic programs and ensure that Marist traditions and values extend to the field. Coaches give countless hours to help the athletes find success on the field which also instills in the athletes the importance of keeping the values of faith, integrity, honesty and hard work at the forefront of their quest for the next championship. The athletic tradition coupled with the life lessons it teaches the students is simply fantastic. The Marist tradition of excellence is phenomenal and carries on through the presence of the Marists. This is why we support the Marists in the hope of retaining the excellence that is Marist School for many more generations to come. We thank the Marists for all they have given our family and numerous others over the years. Like many people, you may want to leave a legacy. Be the cause of something great. A bequest through the Marist Development Office is an easy way to create a lasting memory of things you care most deeply about. Our ministries are rooted in mercy and a deep sense of compassion, inspired by the way of Mary. Planned gifts, in particular, allow you to fulfill personal, financial and philanthropic goals while establishing a legacy of support that will echo in Marist ministries in the locally and globally.
