Our Lady's Dalton

This morning Sarah and I went to Our Lady's in Dalton to take our final assembly of this year.  We decided to do the assembly that I did on Tuesday at Low Furness.  I started with a picture of Abraham and told a little of his story before moving through to Moses and God calling him to Move On.  Despite the fact that the Israelites had Stayed Still for a very long time it was now time for their next stage.  The people Move On into the desert but face hard times and they feel they have to Stay Still but God always has a way for us to Move On and he provided them with safe passage through the Red Sea, fed them in the desert both morning and night as well as watered them.  He was their guide through all the hard times they faced.  Until at last they got to that promised land.  Sarah then related this to the children who each year Move On some to a new class, with a new teacher, in a new room and some to a new school altogether.  She encouraged the children when they do move to ask for help when they meet a difficult situation and even to pray to God when they feel a little worried.  We sang Be Happy to start then finished with Shine before a prayer.
