It's Monday, 8th June 2020. 

Hello everyone, it’s Mr Keep here. 

May the Lord be with you.

We are Bishop Ridley, we are One Community, Learning & Growing Together, Sharing the Love of God.

 

Our song for today is “This Little Light of Mine'

Our Bible verse for today is Acts 1 v 9

9 After saying this, he was taken up to heaven as they watched him, and a cloud hid him from their sight.

 

Our thought for the day
A couple of weeks age, we were hoping to share a collective worship from a good friend of the school, Steve Gurnett.

 

Steve has a reputation for wearing eye catching suits, his fabulous art and sharing a fabulous message which is always meaningful and memorable for the children.

 

Today, we are delighted that Steve can join us online and you are invited to watch along (and create a great piece of art in the process):

 

Reflection Time 

Today, we have thought about ascension and Jesus going up to heaven. This event puzzled the disciples and they were unsure what to do. We can often find ourselves uncertain how to make the right choices. Christians believe that God wants to be involved in every part of people’s lives and loves people to pray for guidance or support.

 

Take a couple of moments to think about anything which has been on your mind, or which has made you uncertain. You might want to say a short prayer to God to ask for guidance on making the best choice.

The Lord’s Prayer (The Lord’s Prayer in song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijPuAtrwHYM )

 

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come, your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
now and for ever. 
Amen.
