St Mary's RC School

On Thursday Sarah and I went to do the assembly at St Mary's RC school in Ulverston.  Sarah started by asking about their summer holidays and then went on to ask if anyone had anything new - this led into talking about new class's, new books, new uniform etc.  She then introduced the theme of our story which was about a man who made a new start.  I then told the story of Jesus' meeting with Zacchaeus and how he had been a liar, a thief and a cheat and that once he met with Jesus his life was changed and he made a new start.  Sarah then continued to talk about how we can do just the same sort of thing when for example we make a mistake if like Zacchaeus we say sorry we can start a new.  To finish we sang So Many Ways to Praise the Lord before Sarah finished with a prayer.
