About

"Just as Our Lord Jesus Christ is at the heart of all our prayer and liturgy, so too he is at the centre of every Catholic school. His Gospel is the reference point for its ethos and values; he offers the definitive example of the educator. Joining Christ in praise of the Eternal Father and united by the Holy Spirit in making intercession for the world through prayer and liturgy lies at the heart of the daily life of the school. The quality of the prayer and liturgy in school not only gives honour to God but forms the spiritual and ethical life of pupils and staff alike." (To Love You More Dearly, The Catholic Bishops Conference of England and Wales)

We provide fully indexed resources to take you through the school year including all the major Christian feasts and seasons (Advent and Christmas, Lent, Holy Week and Easter) and other occasions which are particular to the School context such as the Academic Mass at the beginning of the New School Year.

The Jesuit Liturgical Calendar is used in the parishes, schools and houses of the Society of Jesus in England and Wales, and in Scotland. For this reason, you can also find prayers, Mass texts and other resources related to Jesuit Saints and Blesseds who appear in the Catholic Liturgical Calendar, some of whom are patron saints of Jesuit Schools in the UK.
