5/6FA Gifts of the Holy Spirit

Confirmation Preparation for the Year 6s 

During the first few weeks of Term 4,  5/6FA have been learning about the Fruits and Gifts of the Holy Spirit.  We used the scripture reference Luke Chapter 4:16-22, to learn about when the Holy Spirit first appeared to the Apostles at Pentecost. We discussed how the Holy Spirit gave the Apostles the strength to go out into the world to spread and teach the good news of Jesus. We explored the meaning of each of the fruits and gifts of the Holy Spirit and how we can try and use them in our daily lives.

Below are comments by 5/6FA children who are making their Confirmation on how they can use the gifts or fruits of the Holy Spirit in their daily lives.
