Gather
Today is an opportunity to make form time feel different and distinct. You could use this song, recorded by The choir and Mr Durnell to create an atmosphere in the room before the students come in or some other instrumental music if you would prefer.
We begin our time together as we invite you to make the Sign of the Cross
R./ In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
The opening prayer can be led by anyone, yourself or a volunteer, you could even crate a rota for each week so everyone gets a turn.
Let us pray.
Lord of covenant,
As we hear Your Word today,
help us to trust in Your promises
and to live with hope in the King who reigns forever—
Jesus Christ, Your Son.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
The Word
Every time we come together we’ll explore a different part of God’s story, starting at the beginning and journeying through the year. Again, there is an opportunity for anyone who feels comfortable to read the scripture (image on the left) out loud.
You could then have a period of silence to think about what you’ve heard or discuss what you’ve read as a class.
Response
Each week we’ll respond to the scripture in different ways, so play the video below and follow along to explore this chapter of our story.
Mission
We’ve heard how we can live out our faith today in the video, think about what this might mean for you as we share the closing prayer – again anyone can lead this with the class
Let us pray,
Lord of covenant,
You made a promise to David
that his kingdom would stand firm forever.
Even when people fail,
Your faithfulness never ends.
Help us have Hope in you, even when it feels as though we are alone.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
We end our time together as we invite you to make the Sign of the Cross
R./ In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
