Catholic Life and Mission
This is our GIFT Team. The GIFT Team is made up of 12 Year 5 and 6 pupils and they are responsible for leading on Prayer & Liturgy at St. Richard’s.
Our GIFT Team visited St Mary’s, Manchester to see the designated Jubilee year Holy Door. We had a fantastic morning and learnt lots about the church. Thank you so much for welcoming us.
The GIFT Team planned and led an Advent prayer group each lunchtime in December. We shared stories from the Jesse Tree and it was well attended by many of our KS2 children.
The GIFT Team led a remembrance prayer group during November. The children who attended the group wrote their own prayers on poppies and these are displayed on our remembrance tree in our Prayer Room.
Throughout October, the GIFT Team led a Rosary Prayer group during lunchtime. We planned each session following Gather, Word, Respond and Send. Each session we shared one of the Mysteries of the Rosary, prayed a decade of the Rosary and then gave the children a task to send them away with to share the Good News.
