| The SIXTH
SUNDAY of EASTER. |

We listened to today's Gospel, where Jesus
talks of Love, Faith, Belief and Hope. (John 14:23-29.)
Each alone gives us strength, but put them together and we become invincible.
(Nothing can beat us!)
We also heard a passage taken from the life of Dr. Vicktor Frankl, who
spent time in a Nazi death camp during World War 2. He suffered mentally
and physically, but found that the deep love for his wife brought him
salvation.
He realised that he and his wife loved each other so much that nothing
could destroy that love, even if they never saw each other again. In fact,
they were separated and she was sent to her death, but still the love
lived on. So did Vicktor Frankl. He survived and lived into old age, again
finding happiness with a second wife, but never stopping loving the wife
he had lost.
A man who has nothing left in the world may still know bliss, even if
only for a short time.
Dear God,
We pray for everyone who has suffered at the hands of others. May their
inner strength bring them peace.
Amen
We wrote our own prayers about Faith, Love and belief. |

Dear God,

I hope that this world becomes a better place and a more peaceful place

Jesus on the cross when he died. Jesus we praise you.
Dear God,
Thank you for people , giving me people that give me love and thank you

Dear God,
Thank you for looking after Nanny who is in Heaven, who died before Easter.
Dear God,
Please help those that got put in death camps. The people that survived
were lucky. But God help those that didn't survive. Look after them in
Heaven. It's very unlucky for someone in your family to die so please
look after them all.
Love them in Heaven.
Amen
Dear God,
I love all my family, friends in the world.I love everyone always.
Amen
Dear God,
Thank you for making love, just as I love you and you love me. Thank you
for dying for us. I love my family and friends and so do you. You went
in the desert for forty days and forty nights without any food or water.
Dear God,
Thank you for everything you've given us and for helping us. And thank
you for helping me.
Amen |
