Fire Carriers visit to Aquinas
Our Fire Carriers enjoyed our visit to Aquinas last week as they joined several other primary and secondary schools, united and working towards an ongoing commitment to solidarity and reconciliation with our First nation people. The message was clear that whilst there has been some changes towards reconciliation, there is still work to be done.
Many of our fire carriers have shared this experience with us, on the following page.
Gospel of Matthew 28: 16-20
This weeks Gospel is an important reminder of Jesus message to "Go and make disciples of all the nations".
These were Jesus' last words before he ascended into heaven.
I wonder how the disciples felt when they heard Jesus say this?
I wonder if they felt ready or afraid to continue the work of Jesus?
What does it mean to be a disciple today?
How does this look for us in our family and in our world today?
