St. Peter’s Church and our school are closely linked. Every second Friday children from 3rd to 6th class visit the church. Reverend Iain and Eugene are there weekly to greet us and in the church we learn some history, we enjoy singing and pray.
Children in 5th and 6th class wrote some beautiful prayers, here is Emma’s prayer from this week:
Christmas Prayer
We thank you for sending your only Son down to help Israel
We thank you for everything you give us at this time
We pray for the people who are remembering their loved ones at the time and
Pray for those that don’t have family to spend Christmas with
We pray that you will look after them
We remember how you sent your Son down to earth to be the saviour of the whole world
We remember the Nativity, how was there was no room at the Inn
But then a kind man let them rent a stable
and therefore, Jesus was born in a manger in Bethlehem
We thank you for all our friends, family, clean water, and fresh food
In your name we pray, Amen
– Emma (6th Class)
