The Faith Ambassadors asked parents to send in a photo or drawing of a person who had died, so they would remembered  in prayer during the month of November.

Parent stay and pray

Parents were invited to join with a 'Stay and Pray' session at the end of the day.

Lunch time prayer session

 Saint Augustine said, " He who sings,  prays twice."

The children learnt a song with actions.  Then each child shared their prayer intention and placed a candle on the prayer table.  The children then prayed a decade of the Rosary.

Sister Miriam and Sister Irene worked with children in Reception, year 2 and year 5

Sister Miriam and Sister Irene led  morning staff prayer

Sister Miriam read John 11:17-27 Jesus the Resurrection and the Life.

Jesus said to her, " I am the resurrection and the life .  Those who believe in me will live, even though they die; and all those who live and believe in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

"Yes, Lord!" she answered.

Faith Ambassadors led a decade of the Rosary 27.10.23

Pope Francis invited everyone to fast and pray for peace.  

Fast from worry and trust in God.

Fast from unkind words use kind words.

Do you need peace in your friendships?

Do you need peace in your family?

Where else would you ask for peace?
