Ash Wednesday – Marist Brothers Linmeyer

By bzwadmin ash Wednesday, Marist Brothers Linmeyer

On Wednesday, 14 February 2024, Marist Brothers Linmeyer celebrated Ash Wednesday. After liturgy readings and a motivation from Fr Eduardo Gabriel, students, staff and parents received ashes on their foreheads. This is a meaningful and traditional way to observe Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent. It’s a time for reflection, repentance and spiritual growth leading up to Easter.

Joint Rosary Prayer 2023

By bzwadmin Dominican Convent Belgravia, Homepage news, Marist Brothers Linmeyer, Sacred Heart College, St David’s Marist Inanda, St Henry’s Marist College, St Joseph's Marist College

Every year, the Marist Schools in South Africa set aside an hour in October to say a decade of the Rosary during this special month. October is seen as the month of the Rosary due to the fact that the liturgical feast of Our Lady of the Rosary is celebrated annually on 7 October. As Marists, we have a special devotion to Mary and it is important to us to mark this month in a way that brings us all together in prayer.
