St Teresa's PS

St Teresa's boys and girls walked up to the Pastoral Centre on raw January days. They warmed us with their good humour and sparky discussions.

Monday 21st January 2013

Focus
We decided to use the word CHOICE for our focus. When you are baptised, your parents decide, but when you are making your confirmation, we decide if we want to be confirmed or not. Now it is our choice to follow Jesus.

Music
We chose 'What if God was one of us', it shows we can see God in everyone and 'Shine' as its telling us to shine our light everywhere.

Scripture
Matthew (5:14-16) shine your light.

Prayers

Reflection
We chose the title 'God Loves Us' as we know God always loves us, so we should love everybody.

Wednesday 30th January 2013.

FocusThe reason we picked this design is the water is for our baptism, the cross is for penance and the flame is for love and light.

Music

We chose 'True Colours', as it means to be yourself and nothing else, to be who you really are and not be ashamed of it.

We also chose 'Fireworks', do your best and shine. It also means to explode with your personality and your character, to be creative, passionate and happy, like the flames of the candle.

Scripture

Matthew (5:14-16) shine your light...this means if you have kindness in you, show it.

Prayers

Dear Lord

Thank you for all our families and help them always.

Amen

Dear Lord

We thank you for being there when the worst happens

thanks for bringing our relatives to heaven.

Amen

Dear Lord

I thank you for giving us the beautiful things we have on earth.

We thank you for plants, flowers and trees.

We thank you for little brothers and sisters and 

most of all we thank you for forgiveness and 

still loving us even though we are bad.

Amen

Dear Lord

We thank you God for our talents and abilities.

We pray that you help us get stronger and 

better at these talents and we thank our families. 

We thank you for everyone who cares for us and 

we pray we can be more kind and caring to others.

Amen

 Reflection
We chose the title 'Shine Your Light' because it lets you express your feelings to God.
