Collective Worship at Home
PROMOTING, VALUING & CELEBRATING ACHIEVEMENT IN A CHRISTIAN SETTING
"I am the Good Shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me." John 10:14Welcome to St Paul's CofE VC Junior School online virtual Collective Worships.
Daily collective worship is a very special time at St Paul's. Whilst most of us are at home, there are lots of creative ways that you can still explore learning about God through Bible stories and prayer as well as reflecting on our values and what these mean to you.
We would love you to send us your pictures, prayers and photographs of the activities that you do over the next few weeks. You can send these to your class teachers on Dojo to see!
Week Beginning: Monday 22nd February 2021

40 Acts of Kindness @ St Paul's Challenge 2021 (at home)
There are a few spaces for you to fill with your own ideas to make it suit your household during this period of home learning. Enjoy and have fun.
Dear God,
During this time of Lent, help us all to remember to be thankful for all the good things we have, whether they are a need or a want. May we be reminded to help those in the UK and around the world that do not have enough food to eat. Amen

Share the following poem with a sibling, parent, grandparent or just read it for yourself. It is about a boy called Samuel.
How would you answer this question? Pause for a moment and have a think.
Is it easier to believe in things you can see or in things you can't see?
You could simply answer it in your head or send your ideas to your class teacher through art, prayer or writing. What do you believe in? What don't you believe in? What makes it harder to believe in some things and not others? How would Samuel from the poem answer this question?
As you go through this week, think of all the things you cannot see but know are there. For example, air or love.

Do you often lose hope and forget that each new day is a fresh start?
This is a Collective Worship on the theme of Hope from the Faith at Home team.
What have you done to help someone have a good day? How could you help someone who's having a bad day, to have hope for tomorrow?
Always remember as our school value says, there is always someone there for you, someone to ENCOURAGE you and remind you that tomorrow will be a better day.

Today's Worship from Rev'd Dart to continue the theme and value from Mr Partridge's live zoom on Monday

For today's Worship we are thinking about the start of Lent. Shrove Tuesday (Pancake Day) is on the 16th February which marks the start of the Lent season. Follow the link below to discover more about this.
There are a few images below too for you to try to make links for this season of Lent. How many can you make?
Lent lasts all the way up until Easter Day. Traditionally, this period is marked by giving something up. This is often chocolate or sweets. Some people decide to offer a helping hand to others, give to others, rather than give something up. These are two ways that you could mark this season of Lent. Give something up for give to others.

Dear God,
We are aware of the difference between our needs and our wants. Let us be grateful and content with what we have. We ask for support for those that don't have all their needs met, as we reflect on what we can do to help others. Amen
