St.Bede’s Stands for Loving Relationships, Integrity and Excellence

1. Loving Relationship
with God, self, neighbour and nature is our goal. God is our loving Father, from whom we come and to whom we go. In him we live, move and have our being. Don Bosco’s saying, “God sees you”, is a constant reminder of his loving presence and impels us to joyfully cast our cares upon him. We accept ourselves as we are, realize our dignity as children of God and endeavour to become fully alive.

Loving-kindness permeates all our relationships with people, especially the disadvantaged, in whom we see the image of God - “As long as you did it to one of these, you did it to me”. (Mt.25:40) Our loving relationship with nature lies in our ability to see all created beings as good in themselves and to love and protect the natural world. Any violation of relationship with God, self, neighbour or nature, that is sin, we avoid at all costs.

2. Integrity is the basis for our relationships. There can be no loving relationship without truth and honesty. An honest, integral person is capable of relating in a mature way, respecting the uniqueness and freedom of others. Good relationships are based on trust. Honesty can cost a great deal: blame, criticism and punishment. Ultimately, it creates an atmosphere of truth and trust that allows genuine relationship to flourish.

3. Excellence is our joyful endeavor. Aware of our innate longing for God who is infinite goodness, truth and beauty, we joyfully strive for excellence in all that we do. This striving does not imply selfish competition to grab the first place. Instead, it recognizes our uniqueness as individuals and the need to develop our potential to the best or our ability, in a spirit of co-operation and inter-dependence. Joy and optimism pervade all our endeavors, since, for us, holiness consists in being happy and in sharing our happiness.
