St Marys Dalton

This morning I went to St Marys Dalton for the assembly.  I started the assembly with Be Happy before doing a modern day version of the Good Samaritan story with a business man on a train who becomes ill, a nurse who walks on by likewise a police officer then a rapper steps in to help out.  I explained that Jesus told this story in response to a question about who our neighbour is.  I told the children that their neighbour wasn't just the person who lived next to them but was the people around them and they should be on the look out for how they can help others that might be in need.  To close we sang Help Me Be Your Eyes Lord Jesus as it fitted in with the assembly theme.
