Religious Education

It's hard to believe we are already half way through the year!  The last week of June brings much joy to many people living in Melbourne (especially teachers) as 2 weeks of school holidays begin and many restrictions have been eased. May the following two weeks be a time of rest and rejuvenation.  May you enjoy the company of family and friends, as well as appreciate some time in stillness and prayer. Be kind to yourself and consciously do something that brings you joy. 

The Year 3 students spent some time enjoying God's gift of creation and illustrated a 

representation of something that brings them joy in nature.

Creator God 

In bright light and dull darkness. In the energy of each day and the rest that comes with night.

 We remember the goodness of God 

In the heavens high above our heads. In waters that run deep around the world. 

We remember the goodness of God 

In solid land and flowing seas. In vivid flowers and fruit laden-trees. 

We remember the goodness of God 

In the rising and setting of the sun and the cycles of the seasons. In the patterns of the shining stars. 

We remember the goodness of God 

In oceans teeming with fish. In skies filled with birds. 

We remember the goodness of God 

In a world filled with animal life. And in ourselves as human beings. 

We remember the goodness of God 

And God looked and saw all that he had made, and indeed it was very,  very good. 

In rest and reflection, in wonder and worship. 

We remember the goodness of God. 

Amen
