Our Motto

P Praise to our Patrons, Jesus and Mary,
R Rising to Heaven on wings of prayer;
A Always in love regarding their children
I In Heaven above - They know and care.
S Sleeping or walking, so let it be,
E Eternally giving, and willing to serve;
D Down through the ages, spreading devotion,

F Feeling Their presence with every nerve.
O O, that we may realize Their anxiety
R Regarding the welfare of each on this soil;

E Eagerly waiting a sign of repentance,
V Vigilance ceaseless, is their weary toil.
E Ever casting their mantles protectively round us,
R Reaching down tenderly full of concern

B Breathing Their spirit of Charity constantly,
E Enfolding us, teaching us which way to learn.

J Jesus, O teach us Thy spirit of Love,
E Enkindle our hearts with Thy Fragrance Divine;
S Send us Thy Littleness, Goodness and Kindness,
U Use us as branches - be Thou the vine;
S Search as we may, we shall never discover

A Anyone whose interest in us Theirs excel;
N No one could possibly love us as They do,
D Doing Their utmost our coldness to quell.

M Mary, our Mother, with calmness serene,
A Aching for love from the valley of tears,
R Rarely we greet her; O Jesus and Mary,
Y Your patronage grant us, soothing our fears!
