THE POWER OF PRAYER
At St Cuthbert's we recognise the power of prayer and the comfort it brings. It is a time of quiet contemplation, a time to ask for forgiveness, a time of peace and a time to reflect and be thankful. We respect the diversity in our school community. Each week our children and staff are invited to write prayers inspired by the worship value/message or simply to sit and think about the theme. These prayers are displayed on our prayer tree which stands in our entrance area so that members of our school community and visitors can read them. Some of these prayers are read as part of worship.
Please let us know if you would like us to pray for someone or something in particular by submitting an e-mail using the contact form below.
Our School Prayer
Weekly Prayers
During the Summer term we will continue to look closely at being HeartSmart.
We will explore the value of Love. Loving God, ourselves and others. This will be done in conjunction with poignant festivals and celebrations in the calendars of Christian and other faiths.
