Trust – Summer Term 2022

Click for a larger .pdf version

 

The Christian Value we are particularly focusing on this half term is Trust.

Trust is a really important value. It must be earned. If we do not trust someone it is very hard to build a good friendship with them.

We explored the idea that God trusted us to care for our planet.  Christians believe that care for the earth is not just a slogan, it is a requirement of our faith. We are called to protect people and the planet, living our faith in relationship with all of God’s creation.

 

“The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.”

 

– Genesis 2:15
