St Peters School

This morning Sarah and I went to do the assembly at St Peters School.  It was lovely to see all the children and staff again after the Easter holidays.  We started with singing Be Happy.  Sarah talked to the children about holidays and how if we go on a long journey we will stop half way at a Premier Inn as the children love the eat as much as you like breakfast.  Sarah then asked the children if they had every had breakfast in an unusual place - we got a number of different answers.  She then asked if anyone had ever had breakfast on the beach this linked with our story today - breakfast on the beach.  Before I told the story I reminded the children that Peter had said three times that he didn't know Jesus before Jesus was crucified.  I told the story of Jesus and the disciples eating breakfast together and three times Jesus asking Peter if he loved him.  Each time Peter said yes.  I explained that Jesus was forgiving Peter for saying that he didn't know him, Jesus was also asking Peter to look after the other disciples (feed my sheep).  I pointed out to the children that we all do things wrong some big things some small but if we say sorry to God/Jesus then he will forgive is lie he did with Peter.  Sarah add a little more before introducing our song Shine.  After the song she finished with a prayer followed by the Lord's Prayer.
