Bishop Justus Church of England School Morning Worship The virtue of faith 6th September 2018 Bishop Justus Church of England School  

Gather The Lord be with you And also with you

The Bishop Justus Virtues Faith Hope Love Wisdom Courage Kindness

Receive (today’s Bible reading) It was by faith Abraham obeyed God’s call to go to another place that God promised to give him. He left his own country, not knowing where he was to go.  It was by faith that he lived in the country God promised to give him. He lived there like a visitor who did not belong. He lived in tents with Isaac and Jacob, who had received that same promise from God. Abraham was waiting for the city that has real foundations—the city planned and built by God. The Book of Hebrews, Chapter 11, Verses 8-1 International Children’s Bible

Explore This week we are exploring the virtue of FAITH As a Church school, faith in God is of great importance to us. Faith is expressed in our daily acts of worship, but there are other dimensions to faith; faith in humanity (ourselves and others) as children of God and faith that there is truth and meaning to life.

Explore What do you have faith in? During worship this week, please continue to explore the virtue of faith. Here are some ideas for discussions to help you understand the importance of faith to our community. You might want to make a display on your tutor group notice board. What do you have faith in? What do you need to have faith in something or someone? How can you loose faith in something or someone? As a Bishop Justus student, what do you need to have faith in? As the Bishop Justus community, how can we show faith? (your tutor could pass ideas to your learning director or the Chaplain)

Respond (this week’s prayer) Heavenly Father, Sometimes it can be difficult to have faith in a world which can be scary and unpredictable, but we remember Jesus Christ’s never-ending faith in your love Lord. Help us to have faith in You Lord, in our school community and in ourselves and the talents and abilities you have given each of us. Amen

Go   Let us bless the Lord Thanks be to God
