School children encouraged to 'go for it'

Written by Super User 08 Aug 2013

Hundreds of primary school children breaking up for the summer were encouraged to ‘go for it’ in life and look after others. A special service at Llandaff Cathedral before the start of the school holidays was led by the Archbishop of Wales, Dr Barry Morgan, and the Assistant Bishop of Llandaff, David Wilbourne. The service was attended by year 6 pupils from 21 Church in Wales primary schools across the Diocese of Llandaff who will be starting their secondary schools in September. They were joined by their parish priests who are regular visitors at the school, helping out in lessons and with services and assemblies. Bishop Wilbourne said ‘So in life, go for it. Be bothered, go for every opportunity you are handed and wherever you arrive, make sure you share and look after others.’ After the service, the pupils were each handed a bookmark as a symbol of the diocese's love and care for them.

Pray: for all year 6 pupils around the country who have left their primary schools and will be starting their secondary education in a few weeks time. (Heb.12:1)
