Thoughts for the Week

...from the Chaplain

Week Beginning: 6 July 2026 - Moving On


Refuse good advice and watch your plans fail; take good counsel and watch them succeed. Proverbs 15:22

What things have you learned about yourself in this past year? Do you take advice about your future? Who from? What has helped you and encouraged you? Can you share these ideas with others to help them?

The prospect of the righteous is joy, but the hope of the wicked will perish. Proverbs 10:28

Where do you see yourself in the future? What are your ambitions and prospects as you move on? Are you joyful about your future? Note down some things for the future so you have a vision to encourage you and help you. Keep these safe and look back on them.

Prayer for this week

Dear God,  

You are our hope and our strength at all times. I know that You hold the future in the palm of Your hands, and I trust You. I pray that no matter what the future holds, You will remain there beside me. Help me remember that you want the best for me and will never leave me or forsake me. I commit my future to You. 

Amen

Our School Prayer

Help us through our duty to you
To love our neighbour,
To care for others,
To do our best for and in school,
To work for the common good of our community,
And to care for ourselves as we serve you.

Amen 

Additional prayers for difficult times

Keep us, good Lord,
under the shadow of your mercy in this time of uncertainty and distress.

Sustain and support the anxious and fearful,
and lift up all who are brought low; that we may rejoice in your comfort knowing that nothing can separate us from your love
in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Amen.
