Why GPBS?

GPBS is more than a website or media hub. GPBS is your go-to space for connecting students and staff in Catholic schools through relevant faith experiences and engaging liturgy that intersects with our day-to-day human encounters.

At its core, GPBS is all about accompanying Catholic schools as they cultivate rich experiences of faith that speak to the contemporary world. With an annual online subscription package, you can access daily, weekly, seasonal and annual prayer and liturgical resources and multimedia.

Additionally, the GPBS Mission & Ministry Team can work directly with your school community to facilitate student and staff retreats, workshops, leadership formation and professional learning opportunities that foster the ability in your team to do the same.

Explore resources for Catholic schools and educators.

Scripture of the Week

Jesus continued, "Be on your guard. So, whatever you do, don't go to sleep at the switch. Pray constantly that you will have the strength and wits to make it through everything that's coming and end up on your feet before the Son of Man."

Prayer of the Week

Prayer after lighting the Advent Candle (can be used each week during Advent).
God, you gave us Jesus and the story of Jesus is for the whole world. May we light this candle and may the flame remind us of Jesus who brings hope to everyone. Amen.

Frankly Speaking

The season of Advent is a time for us to be surprised by God's mercy and compassion. Advent, then, is a time for overturning our perspectives ... letting us be surprised at what God can do for us. A time in which, preparing the nativity display for the Infant Jesus, we learn again who our Lord is, a time to leave behind certain mindsets and prejudices about God and our sisters and brothers; a time in which, instead of thinking about gifts for ourselves, we can focus on the words and gestures of Jesus.
