Dear Parents,
It was wonderful to see so many parents this morning for our Lent parent prayer time! It was lovely to enjoy this opportunity to come together in prayer during our season of Lent. In this week’s Gospel, we reflected on Jesus’s journey into the desert where he fasted for 40 days and nights. We thought about the word ‘freedom’ and how each of us is lucky enough to have the freedom to make our own choices and to choose to follow God in our lives.
This time of Lent is an opportunity to follow Jesus’ example and spend some quality time in developing our relationship with God. CAFOD has some lovely resources to support you in praying with your children at home.
