Forgiveness

 

'Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven.'

                                                                                    Luke 6:37

 

 

A Teaspoon Prayer for Forgiveness

Dear Lord,

Thank you that you offer forgiveness to all, through Jesus.

Sorry for the times when we have been slow to say sorry to others or not quick enough to forgive.

Please help us to ask for forgiveness when we make a mistake and to accept an apology kindly.

Amen

 

Forgiveness Prayer

Lord Jesus

Help us to be ready to show forgiveness to others,

As you are ready to show forgiveness to us.

Amen

 

Praying for Forgiveness

Dear Lord,

Thank you that you forgive us completely.

When people hurt us, please help us not to bear grudges,

and instead, ask for your strength to forgive.

Amen

Children's work

 

During our Collective Worship, the children and staff discussed what forgiveness meant to them and how it can be seen in school. Working together, the children recorded their thoughts on either a forgiveness heart or a cross.
