Termly Values
This term, the Christian values are Thankfulness and Compassion.
The memory verse is:
Psalm 118:1 ‘Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.’
Each term, the classes write prayers that link to the termly values and things that are in the news at that moment. These prayers are placed in prayer pockets or on the Reflective Corner displays and are chosen from for end of the day prayers. Here are some examples of the prayers the children have written:
Dear Lord,
You had compassion for your people and sent Jesus as a sacrifice for all the things we do wrong. Thank you for forgiving us when we say sorry for our mistakes.
Thank you for sending you message down in the Holy Trinity as God teh Fatehr, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
How Jesus, when he left and ascended into heaven, showed compassion and sent the Holy Spirit to help us.
Amen.
Heavenly Father, I thank you for today. Thank you for forgiving me my sins. Help me to always do what is right. help me to be nice to others and be a good kid. Amen.
Dear God,
Thank you for all the good things happening to people. But we pray you'll help those in need too. The people in Turkey and Syria suffereing from earthquakes and those with sickness or illness around the world. I hope you help Iceland with volcanoes and keep them safe. Thank you for keeping us safe and in your Name we pray these things.
Amen
Dear God,
Thank you for all you do. Thank you for love. You are the best. Amen.
Dear Lord,
We thank you for all our friends and the lovely teamwork in our class. Help us to show kindness and respect to everyone every day. Help us to remember that we are all part of a special team.
Amen
