Living hope
We’re excited to help pupils to stop, pause, and reflect on what it means to have and be a living hope.
In the Bible, Jesus says ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’ John 14:6. For Christians this message is a key part of the Easter story, that Jesus came to Earth to bring hope and to offer people a new way of living life and coming closer to God.
Living Hope will take pupils on a journey through Lent reflecting on Jesus’ ministry and his message of hope for all people.
Each week there is:
Liturgical suggestions
Bible passage activity
Video exploration
Practical and prayerful actions
Prayer
Additional ideas for connecting home, church and school
Alongside this collective worship resource, the Church of England have produced a daily reflections booklet for adults (CHP) and a daily challenge booklet for children and families (CHP). Find out more here: Living Hope.
