5. Engage
Comic Relief raises money and then uses it to help end poverty and unfairness.
It works in the UK and also in the poorest countries in the world. Here's what it does:
Gets money in: Raises money from the public in the UK by getting them involved in fun special events.
Shares money out: Does a lot of research to find out which charities to support and then carefully decides how best to spend the money the public donated.
Educates people: Explains the causes of poverty in Africa and problems faced by groups and communities in the UK. Also lets people in the UK know how they can change things for the better.

6. Engage
Video suggestion … Ed Sheeran travels to Liberia for Comic Relief
Some discussion ideas …
What is good about Red Nose Day?
What silly fundraising activities have you done?
Discussion techniques - Go back to the Bible passage ask “How does the theme link with the Bible passage?”
Discuss the question in pairs for 30 seconds then invite a response from each pair.
Use quick-fire answers e.g. throw a soft bean bag / toy to a student, when they answer they throw it back and you quickly throw to another student.
Simplify the question - Invite quick one-word answers, write them on the board, then reflect on the answers – see connections.
Activity suggestion … Join in the fundraising activities in school!

7. Respond Amen We thank God for the joy of fun and laughter.
[Reflect for a minute on the worship theme and our engagement …]
We thank God
for the joy of fun and laughter.
We pray that people who are struggling
will be helped by the fundraising that we do.
Amen
Prayer / reflection technique – Give a summary of the theme and any responses that students may have made, then invite everyone to be still (remind no books open etc – lessen distraction). To pray or reflect on today’s worship. Be quiet for one minute. Then say the prayer …

8. Go out into the world with the light of Christ
