St Peters School

This morning Sarah and I went to St Peters school for the first assembly of 2015.  It was great to see all the children there and to chat to some of them about what they got for Christmas.  After singing Be Happy Sarah talked about the start of the new year and displayed some pictures, the pictures showed things that were starting, like a plane taking off, a wedding, a book about the first day of school and a race starting.  She explained that at the start of a new year many people decide to do something differently either they change something or they start something new.  This led to me telling the story of Zacchaeus and about how he changed his life following meeting with Jesus.  Sarah then encouraged the children to perhaps thing about something they might like to change this year.  We then sang God Can Do Anything and Sarah closed with a prayer.
