Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those
who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

St. Labre Indian School

For more than 135 years, the “miracle” of St. Labre has transformed the lives of the Northern Cheyenne and Crow children in our care. Nearly 700 students at our three campuses in Southeastern Montana are receiving an exceptional education that can lift them out of poverty and prepare them for a better, brighter future. And for some who come from unsafe home situations, St. Labre gives them a secure place where they can feel safe and secure.

The St. Labre educational experience also places great importance on Native American culture and traditions by providing instruction in Native languages, Beading, Native American Museum Research, and much more. For our students, learning about their culture and heritage offers an anchor, a base from which they can venture out into the broader world, confident in who they are.

Along with educating these boys and girls, St. Labre offers assistance to their families and communities through our Community Outreach Program, which provides help for families and Elders in need of food, heat, gas, and medical assistance.
