In the Gospel, Jesus gathers his friends together and sends them out with a mission to share his peace with everyone. He says "Whatever house you enter, first say, peace be to this house." Greg helps us to reflect upon this Gospel and to understand that Jesus always wants us to share his peace. We then move into a time of prayer and sing God's Spirit is in My Heart with Angel.

Saints Peter and Paul are two wonderful saints and we are celebrating them today. We hear in the Gospel how Jesus asks his friends a question and Peter gives a great answer. Greg helps us understand that both Saints Peter and Paul didn't just know who Jesus was in their heads, they knew it in their hearts. We then invite Jesus into our hearts when we pray and sing 'Follow Me' with Sr Chiara.

We meet Jesus as he speaks in front of a great crowd but there is a problem, they need something to eat. His disciples bring him five loaves and two fish and Jesus works a wonderful miracle. Greg helps us reflect upon the Gospel for the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ. We then gather with Jesus to pray and listen to Angel as she sings "This is My Body".

God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit are the Holy Trinity. We are celebrating the Holy Trinity and discovering more about them together. Greg helps us to know and love the Trinity more. We meet them in our hearts as we pray and then sing Sign Your Cross with Sr Chiara.

On the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came down and filled Jesus’s friends. We use beautiful symbols to help you picture the way tongues of fire separated on each of their heads. We then pray for the same Holy Spirit to fill us with the love, joy and peace of God. This is a beautiful chance to be with the Holy Spirit in prayer. We then sing and invite the Holy Spirit with a song to him.

We are celebrating the Ascension and the amazing moment when Jesus went up to heaven. We reflect together upon this moment and also how our prayers make the same journey. When we pray, our prayers ascend to heaven and are heard by God. Knowing this, we pray together and then sing 'The Lord's Prayer' with Angel.

In the Gospel, Jesus tells his friends that he must go away, but he will send them a Helper. Greg shares with us who this Helper is, the Holy Spirit. He also reminds us that we have another helper who we can especially turn to in May, Our Lady. We ask for both the Holy Spirit and Our Lady to be with us when we pray. We then sing 'Be Still' with Sr Chiara.

Jesus said to his friends "Just as I have loved you, you are also to love one another." Jesus wants us to love everyone around us. That is the best way to show that we follow him. Greg helps us to reflect on how Jesus's friends were able to share the love of Jesus and grow the Church. We pray that we can share Jesus's love too. We end with a new hymn called "God is Love" sung by Joe.

Jesus is the Good Shepherd who lays down his life for the sheep. In the Little Liturgies, we introduce children to Jesus the Good Shepherd as he speaks to the through John’s Gospel. We use actions and symbols to illustrate how the Good Shepherd, protects, guards and sacrifices himself for the sheep he loves. We then pray to the Good Shepherd and use some of the words from Psalm 23. We then sing "The Lord is my Shepherd" with Angel.

May is the month of Our Lady and we want to help you show your love for her. Our Lady is Jesus's mother and our mother in heaven. When Jesus was growing, Our Lady didn't understand everything about him, but she treasured everything in her heart. This May, we can take Our Lady's hand as she leads us to know and love Jesus more. Because Our Lady is Queen of May, we sing one of our favourite hymns to her 'As I Kneel Before You' with Sr Therese.

The Risen Jesus appeared to his friends on the evening of Easter Sunday, but one of them wasn't there, Thomas. Thomas struggled to believe that Jesus was alive and Jesus taught him something important. Greg helps us know that Jesus is also speaking to us through his words to Thomas. As always, we then join Jesus in prayer. Afterwards, we sing 'I Could Sing of Your Love Forever' with Angel.

On the first day of the week, just as the sun was rising, Jesus's friends went to the tomb where Jesus's body had been laid. There they found the stone rolled away and the tomb empty. Jesus had risen! We want to celebrate this amazing Easter news that Jesus is alive. Greg welcomes us into the joy of this moment and teaches us the paschal greeting! We then meet Jesus in our hearts as we pray and sing King of Kings with Angel.

The night before Jesus died, he gathered for a passover meal with his friends. Here he gave them a beautiful gift, his body and blood. The next day Jesus would give his life to take away the sins of the world. We invite you to journey with us to the upper room and celebrate the Last Supper with Jesus. This profound and beautiful moment brings together not just the institution of the Eucharist, but also Jesus sacrifice on the cross. We pray that this Celebration of the Word welcomes children into the sacred moments of Holy Week

As Holy Week draws near, we meet with Jesus in the temple. The Pharisees bring a woman to Jesus who has broken the law. They want to hurt her. Jesus changes everything with words of love and forgiveness. Greg helps us to pray with this Lenten Gospel and then we join Angel to sing 'Servant King.'

Jesus wants us to know just how much God loves us. In the Gospel, he shares a beautiful parable about a lost son who came home. Greg uses the words of the Gospel, combined with some painted figures, to help us pray with the parable. We can know from the Parable of the Lost Son that God will always welcome us home with a huge hug of forgiveness whenever we choose to turn back to him.

Parables are the stories Jesus tells to help us discover the mysteries of God. In the Gospel, Jesus shares a parable about a fig tree which isn't growing any fruit. A kind gardener works to help the tree grow. Greg helps us wonder about what Jesus is telling us through this parable. We then join Jesus in prayer, asking for his help to grow in kindness and love. We end with the hymn 'Here I Am Lord' sung by Angel.

Last week we were with Jesus in the desert and this week we join him at the top of a mountain. Jesus stands on the mountain and shines brightly. He shares a beautiful moment of prayer with three of his friends and he invites us to pray with him too. Greg helps us wonder about what it must have been like to be with Jesus in this beautiful place. We then meet with Jesus in prayer and sing Shine Jesus, Shine together.

As we begin the season of Lent we go into the wilderness with Jesus. There, in that lonely and wild place he is tempted by the devil. Jesus shows us how we can use this time of Lent to grow closer to God and keep him in our hearts. Greg explains how we can pray, fast, give and make space for God during Lent. We then pray together and sing 'Sign Your Cross' with Sr Chiara.

In the Gospel, Jesus tells us a parable about specks and logs getting into people's eyes! What could he possibly be talking about? Greg opens up the parable and helps us ponder what Jesus could be saying to us and the way we should live. He encourages us to be a good example so that others can see the right things to do. We then join Jesus as we pray and sing 'Trading My Sorrows.'

In the Gospel, we hear Jesus share a difficult teaching with the people. He tells them that they will be blessed if they are poor, hungry, if they weep and when people hate them. Greg helps us understand how there is good news even in this hard message: That Jesus is always with us especially in difficult times. We pray and invite Jesus to be close to us and then sing 'One and All' with Angel.

In the Gospel, we meet Jesus by the Lake. He sees a fisherman called Simon. Simon has fished all night and caught nothing, but Jesus asks him to throw his nets back into the water. What happens next amazes everyone! Greg helps us understand that Jesus is calling each one of us to follow him. We join Jesus as we pray and then sing ‘Follow Me, Follow Me’ with Sr Chiara.

It's forty days after Christmas and Mary and Joseph take Jesus to the Temple to be presented. There, the Holy Family meet Simeon who has something wonderful to say about Jesus. Greg helps us to enter into the Presentation Gospel and invites us to share the light of Jesus with others. We then pray together and sing the hymn Be Still with Sr Chiara.

It is time to begin the Jubilee! We meet Jesus in his hometown of Nazareth and he has an important announcement to make: 'The year of the Lord's favour' has begun. Jesus is announcing a new time of hope for everyone. We are also starting a year of new hope, the Jubilee. Greg, with the help of a new friend, helps us understand more about the Jubilee and how we can walk with Jesus. We then pray together and sing 'God's Spirit is in My Heart' with Angel.

Do you know what Jesus's first miracle was? It happened at Cana in Galilee when Jesus and his friends were at a wedding. In this Little Liturgy, we listen to the Gospel together and Greg then shows us six jars and fills them with water. He uses these to help us picture the moment Jesus turned water into wine. We then enter into prayer together and sing Way Maker with Fr Columba.

In the Gospel, we meet Jesus on the bank of the River Jordan. He has been baptised by John the Baptist when suddenly the heavens open and God the Father speaks some amazing words. This is a moment of awe and wonder! Greg helps us know that God the Father loves each of us just as much as he loves Jesus. We hold this truth in our hearts as we pray and then join the Sisters as they sing the action song 'Shine Jesus, Shine."

It’s time for the Wise Men to visit Jesus in Bethlehem. We hear in the Holy Gospel how they travelled a huge distance to lay their eyes on the newborn king. Greg shows us the Nativity figures of the Wise Men holding their beautiful gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. We too can give our gifts to Jesus! What could be the most precious gift you could give to him? You can do this as we pray. We close our celebration with our favourite hymn about the Wise Men: ‘We Three Kings of Orient Are.’

In our Fourth Advent Little Liturgy, we hear the Gospel story of Mary visiting her cousin Elizabeth. When Elizabeth heras that Mary has arrived she is filled with the joy of the Holy Spirit. Greg helps us to reflect upon this amazing moment, we pray together and then sing 'Joy to the World' with Theo and Angel.

In our Third Advent Little Liturgy, we hear St John the Baptist telling us that someone is coming. He wants us to get ready for the joy of meeting Jesus. In the Mark 10 Bag, we find Mary and Joseph on their way to Bethlehem. This is the time when they were getting ready for Jesus to come. Greg helps us to learn from Mary and Joseph as we prepare for Christmas. We pray and sing the beautiful Advent hymn 'Prepare Him Room.'

In our second Advent Little Liturgy, we meet one of the important people of this season, St John the Baptist. We hear how he went into the desert and told the people 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.' Greg helps us understand that St John is also shouting this to us and inviting us to make a straight path for Jesus. Today's hymn is the Advent favourite: O Come O Come Emmanuel.

It is the beginning of the Season of Advent. We light the first candle on the Advent Wreath and listen to Jesus speaking to us in the Gospel. Advent is about getting ready for Christmas but also to prepare for when Jesus comes again. When will this be? Jesus doesn't say but he tells us about what will happen when he comes again and that we must be ready to meet him. Greg helps us to pray and Angel sings the hymn 'How Great is Our God' with us.

Jesus is a king and this week we are celebrating this and crowning him as the king of our hearts. Greg helps us to reflect upon the two crowns of Jesus and leads us to prayerfully ask "Will I invite Jesus to be the king of my heart?" We then sing our praises to Jesus the king with the hymn "Sing Hosanna!"

Jesus tells us a parable about a man who is beaten up by robbers and left by the side of the road. He meets a Samaritan who cares for him. Greg helps us to pray with this beautiful parable, showing us beautiful symbols and actions. We pray for Jesus to heal any of our hurts and sing with Sr Chiara.

Jesus watches as a poor woman puts two copper coins in the Temple money box. It doesn't seem like much but Jesus knows that this is everything she has. We listen to the Gospel and Greg helps us to think about what we can give to Jesus. We pray together and then sing a new song called "Praise"

In this Little Liturgy, we gather to celebrate the saints. The saints are to holy men and women who have lived wonderful lives for God and have gone to heaven. Greg introduces us to some of his favourite saints. We then pray together and sing Be Still with Sr Chiara.

To serve means to give something to another person. In the Gospel, Jesus tells us that he came not to be served but to serve and he wants us to serve too. Greg helps us understand more and pray about this. He tells a story about Blessed Chiara and how she served in a simple way. We then spend time with Jesus and sing 'Servant King' with Angel.

In the Gospel, Jesus meets a young man who has a question for Jesus. Jesus answers his question and then invites the man to give up what he owns and follow him. What happens next is very sad. Greg helps us to reflect and pray with this Gospel passage we then join Sr Chiara to sing the beautiful action song 'Sign Your Cross.'

In the Gospel, people are bringing children to Jesus but the disciples are stopping them coming near. What Jesus does next shows exactly how he feels about children. Greg helps us to reflect upon the Gospel, pray together and then we all sing the beautiful hymn 'Channel of Your Peace' with Angel.

Join Greg by the riverside as he shares with us a story about a girl called St Bernadette and a beautiful lady she saw. The lady was Our Lady of Lourdes. In this special Little Liturgy, Greg shows us how to pray the Rosary and invites us to pray it each day in October. We then join Sr Therese as she sings ‘As I Kneel Before You.’

Jesus's friends are arguing about who is the greatest. They don't understand that to be great, Jesus asks us to put other people first. Greg tells us about Saint Padre Pio, who wanted to live a quiet life but thousands of people came to see him. Not only is this a great story, it helps us understand how we can put God first and serve others. We pray together and sing 'The Lord's Prayer' with Angel.

Jesus has many names. In this week's Little Liturgy we hear some of the beautiful names for Jesus. Greg then helps us to understand that Jesus is the only one who can show us who he truly is. We go to Jesus when we pray and then sing to him with the action song 'He is the Vine.'

It’s time to start a new year together and open our hearts to Jesus. In the Gospel, we hear how Jesus meets a man who can’t hear or speak. Jesus heals him and says ‘Be opened.’ We can be open to Jesus speaking to us. Greg helps us understand two ways we can listen to Jesus speaking to us. We open ourselves to Jesus as we pray and sing to him with Angel. She sings ‘I Could Sing of Your Love Forever’ for us.

Jesus sent out his friends to share his love with others. They were his representatives. Greg helps us understand that Jesus invites us to represent him in the world. Our words can be his words, Our hands can be his hands. We spend time with Jesus in prayer and then sing the action song 'Deep Cries Out.'

Jesus went with his friends to his home town of Nazareth but the people did not welcome him like in other places. "This is the carpenter" they say. Greg helps us to pray about welcoming Jesus into our home and how we can love those we live with. We then join Sr Chiara to sing "All the People Said Amen."

In the Mark 10 Bag, Greg finds two beautiful statues. They are Saint Peter and Saint Paul. We find out more about Saints Peter and Paul and pray that we can help Jesus like they did. We then join Sr Therese, Greg and Sr Chiara to sing Jesus is the Vine.

As Jesus's friends cross the lake, a wild storm builds up and the boat is about to sink...but where is Jesus? He is asleep with his head on a cushion! His friends wake him and Jesus shows them that they shouldn't fear and can always trust him. We pray together and ask Jesus to help us trust him even when things are going wrong. We then join Angel and sing the hymn Cornerstone.

Jesus has a question for his friends: "What can we say the kingdom of God is like?" he asks. He says it is like a tiny mustard seed which grows into a huge tree. Greg has some mustard seeds in a beautiful wooden chest. He helps us reflect upon what Jesus could be showing us. We then pray for the kingdom of God to grow in us before joining Sr Chiara to sing 'Christ Be Our Light.'

In the Mark 10 Bag we have a beautiful statue of Jesus with a burning heart on his chest. This is the Sacred Heart of Jesus. In June, we celebrate the Sacred Heart and Greg helps us to know how Jesus wants to share the love in his heart with us. We then pray and rest in the love of the Sacred Heart and sing with Sr Chiara. Her song is called 'Lord You Have My Heart.'

The most important truths of our faith can be shared with the youngest school children. This week we help children celebrate Corpus Christi and welcome them into the beautiful mystery of the Eucharist. Greg helps us understand more of what happens at Mass and how this matches Jesus’s words and actions at the Last Supper. We then draw close to Jesus in prayer and sing the beautiful hymn ‘This is My Body.’

The first ever World Children's Day is happening on the 26th of May. Pope Francis will celebrate World Children's Day in Rome and we are joining in the celebration. We hear in the Gospel how Jesus wanted the children to come to him. Greg explains just how much Jesus loves children. We then pray for children across the world and sing one of our favourite hymns: Here I Am Lord.

On the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came. In a rush of wind and flame, the friends of Jesus were filled with the Spirit and could speak in other languages. Greg helps us pray about the gifts the Spirit can give to us and how we can use our words to share the love of Jesus. We pray to be filled with the Holy Spirit and celebrate the joy of Pentecost with the action song "Shine Jesus Shine."

Forty days after Easter Sunday, Jesus took his friends to a mountain and was lifted up to heaven. We call this moment the Ascension. We listen to the Gospel of the Ascension together. Greg then helps us to understand that even though Jesus went to his throne in heaven, he is still close to us. We speak to Jesus and listen to his voice in prayer and then worship with Angel as she sings 'The Lord's Prayer.'

We want to invite children to crown Mary in their hearts and celebrate her as the Queen of May. We lay a garland of flowers around a statue of Mary and hear about her visit to her cousin Elizabeth. Greg helps us to understand how special Mary is and how she can help us pray to Jesus. We join Mary as we pray and sing one of our favourite hymns - ‘As I Kneel Before You.’

We are still celebrating the Season of Easter and today Jesus shares with us a parable. He says "I am the vine, you are the branches." Greg helps us understand what a vine is and how Jesus wants us to stay joined to him, like a vine and its branches. We spend beautiful time with Jesus in prayer and then use our bodies and voices to worship him with the action song 'He is the Vine.'

Let's enter the sheepfold of the Good Shepherd. Jesus is the Good Shepherd, but who are the sheep? We walk together through the Parable of the Good Shepherd and watch as the Good Shepherd lays down his life for his sheep. We also see how the Good Shepherd takes his life back up again. In this celebration of the Word we help children contemplate where they fit into this beautiful teaching from Jesus.

The tomb is empty but Jesus's friends are still hiding. In our second Easter Little Liturgy we hear how Jesus stepped into the room and showed himself to his friends. "Peace be with you." he said. Greg helps us to understand what peace is and how Jesus wants to give us his peace too. We pray to be given Jesus's peace and the sing 'Servant King' with Angel.

When Jesus' friends arrived at the tomb where Jesus' body had been laid they saw that the stone had been rolled away. They went inside and saw that the tomb was empty, Jesus was not there, he had risen! Greg helps us to celebrate the joy of Easter and imagine this amazing moment on the first Easter morning. We pray together and sing 'Christ is Risen' with Fr Columba.

The Little Liturgy helps our younger viewers enter into the events of Holy Week.

We begin by waving palm leaves on Palm Sunday and singing “Hosanna” as Jesus arrives in Jerusalem. We then gather with Jesus and his friends at the Last Supper and finally, we walk with Jesus to the cross. As we listen to the Gospel, pray and sing together we show our love for Jesus as he shows his amazing love for us during Holy Week.

In this Little Liturgy, Jesus gives his friends a clue about what will happen to him soon. He uses a parable about a grain of wheat to help them understand why he must die on a cross. Greg finds some wheat grains in the Mark 10 Bag and helps us to pray with the parable. We then join Angel as she sings ‘Lay it Down.’

How much does God love you and me? Greg reads the words of Jesus in the Gospel and helps us to understand that ‘God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son.’ In the middle of our Lenten journey, we think about how Jesus was given to the world when he died on the cross. We pray together and close with the song ‘All the People Said Amen.’

It’s hard to pray when there’s lots of noise, especially when it’s coming from sheep and cows! In our prayer time, we hear how Jesus went into the Temple in Jerusalem and found it full of sound and busyness. What he did next shows how much he wants us to be able to hear his voice. We think about the Gospel and come close to Jesus in prayer. We finish by singing a new song with Angel.

Gospel: John 2:13-25

Song: The Lord’s Prayer

This week we walk up a high mountain and see Jesus shining brightly. What a sight! It is wonderful to join Peter, James and John in this dazzling place.

This moment on the mountain is called the Transfiguration. We use this marvellous moment in the Gospels to step into Jesus’s presence when we pray. We then join Sr Chiara as she sings the action song Shine Jesus, Shine.

Gospel: Mark 9:2-10

Song: Shine Jesus, Shine

There’s a desert in the Mark 10 bag this week. That is because we are beginning the Season of Lent and joining Jesus as he enters that lonely place. We think about why Jesus chose to go into the desert and what we can learn from him. We pray and ask Jesus to help us decide on how we can pray, fast and give to others during Lent. We then join Sr Chiara and sing ‘Be Still.’

Gospel: Mark 1:12-15

Song: Be Still (For the Presence of the Lord)

It's time to celebrate the presentation of Jesus in the Temple. Forty days after Christmas, Mary and Joseph took the baby Jesus to Jerusalem to present him in the Temple.

Gospel: Luke 2:22-40

Song: Hallelujah (Your Love Makes Me Sing)

The Church celebrates the feast day of ‘The Conversion of St Paul’ at the end of January. In the Little Liturgies, we share the story of St Paul meeting Jesus on the road to Damascus.

Reading: Acts 22:6-16

Song: I'm Trading My Sorrows

The Gospels aren't just nice stories, they are ones we can step into when we pray. In 'Follow Me!' we meet Jesus walking on the shore of the Lake. He is on the look out for his first disciples. He spots two fishermen, Simon Peter and his brother Andrew mending their nets. "Follow me" he says and they drop everything and go with him. Greg helps us to enter into the scene and imagine ourselves by the shore. Each time we pray, we can meet Jesus. He is always inviting us to follow him. We conclude the Little Liturgy with Sr Chiara and the hymn 'Follow Me, Follow Me.'

Gospel: Mark 1:14-20

Song: Follow Me, Follow Me

What's it like to spend time with Jesus? In this Little Liturgy, Andrew and his friend want to find out where Jesus lives. "Come and see" Jesus says and invites them to stay with him. We don't know what they spoke about, but whatever happened, Andrew knew that he had met the Messiah. Greg explains how we can visit a place where Jesus lives and spend time with him too. We then join Angel and sing the hymn 'Here I Am Lord.'

Gospel: John 1:35-42

Song: Here I Am Lord

The Wise Men from the east had crossed mountains and deserts following a star, but who were they looking for? In this Epiphany celebration we join the Wise Men and meet with Jesus in Bethlehem.

Gospel: Matthew 2:1-12

Song: We Three Kings

The Mark 10 bag is full of nativity figures and we share the Gospel story of the very first Christmas. Before children begin their Christmas break, we want them to enter into the true joy of Christmas. We lead them to the stable where they can look and wonder at the child Jesus laying in the manger. We tell of the shepherds and the angels who share the Good News that Jesus has been born into the world! We pray together and sing the carol 'Joy to the World.'

Gospel: Luke 2:1-20

Song: Joy to the World

In our second Advent video, we join Mary, Joseph (and Jesus) on the road to Bethlehem.

We reflect upon how Jesus was with them every step of the way and how he is close to us each day too. We enter into prayer and then join Angel and The as they sing ‘Prepare Him Room.’

It's time to begin Advent and we enter into the season with Mary and the Angel Gabriel. Using beautiful figures, we share the moment when Mary received the wonderful news that would change the world forever! Jesus was on his way! We help children ponder and wonder as they hear how the Holy Spirit came to Mary and God's power rested upon her.

In the Mark 10 Bag we find a beautiful golden crown and some mustard seeds. These symbols help to remind us that Jesus is the king. But what type of king is he and where is his kingdom? We reflect together on how Jesus is the greatest king of all. We then enter into prayer and worship him in song.

Gospel: Matthew 25:31-40

We are all a part of God’s family, like sheep in a flock. We share the parable of the Good Shepherd and lead children to wonder who the Good Shepherd could be and why he wants to keep his sheep safe. We then pray for everyone in God’s family, especially those who are in need. As Christians we are called to help and serve and this Little Liturgy helps children to pray for the needs of others.

Gospel: John 10:2-15

This week, Jesus shares with us a parable all about bridesmaids and their oil lamps. Some of the bridesmaids have enough oil to keep their lamps burning, others don't have enough. We us the symbol of the lamp and the oil to illustrate to children how God wants to pour his love into their hearts. This image leads us into prayer. We then join Fr Columba to sing 'Blessed Be Your Name.'

Gospel: Matthew 25:1-13

Putting other people first isn't always easy but with Jesus by our side we can do it! In the Gospel, Jesus invites us to be humble. He helps us understand how to be humble by pointing out those who weren't humble at all, the pharisees. They loved to show how important they were. Jesus wants us to do the opposite, put others before ourselves and serve.

Gospel: Matthew 23:1-12

In November, we remember the people who have died. The saints are holy men and women who have lived their lives loving God and are now with him in heaven.

We then worship with our voices and our bodies with one of our favourite action songs, 'This Little Light of Mine.'

Gospel: Matthew 5:1-12

Weddings are a joyful celebration of love. In this Little Liturgy we lead children to pray about the way God invites them into the joyful celebration of his kingdom.

Gospel: Matthew 22:1-10

October is the Month of the Holy Rosary and we have travelled to Walsingham to invite you to take on a very special challenge. In the Gospel we hear the story of the Angel Gabriel's visit to Mary. We reflect on how Mary is our mum and we can show our love for her through a simple yet beautiful prayer.

Gospel: Luke 1:26-38

Song: As I Kneel Before You

In this Little Liturgy, we hear a Gospel where people must have been shouting "Hey! That's not fair!" Jesus uses a parable about a vineyard owner who pays all of his workers one silver coin. It helps us to understand that God is not fair with his love, he gives it to everyone, no matter who they are or what they have done. We pray the prayer time helps children encounter the love of God and that they love singing one of our favourite hymns: Here I Am Lord.

Gospel: Matthew 20:1-16

Song: Here I Am Lord

Forgiveness is a difficult virtue to explain to young children. Jesus uses a parable of a king and a servant to show us what not to do! God our Father loves us so much and this Little Liturgy helps children ponder how they can respond with love and forgiveness. We are also singing the hymn ‘Sing Aloud’ for the first time. We hope children can pick up the words quickly and join in the chorus.

Gospel: Matthew 18:21-35

Song: Sing Aloud

How do we pray? In this Little Liturgy, we help children to understand what prayer is and how they can start to pray themselves every day. We want children to know that God, who loves them so much, is always close to them and ready to listen to the prayers of their hearts.

Gospel: Matthew 18:15-20

Song: Christ Be Our Light

For our first episode of the year, we start ‘In the beginning’ (John 1:1) and help children to consider who Jesus really is and why we spend time with him in prayer. As we set out on another year together, we want children to know and experience the amazing love that Jesus has for them.
