Today in Religion we started our new unit, Forgiveness and Healing.
Forgiveness is one of the great characteristics of the Christian faith. God forgives us all our sins and faults, but we too are required to be forgiving people. In fact the words of the Lord’s Prayer, which Jesus Christ himself taught his disciples, asks God to ‘forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us’.
We learnt that forgiveness of each other, as God forgives us, restores the bonds of love and friendship.
The following picture storybook, Pumpkin soup highlights the importance of forgiveness and reconciliation. You might like to watch and discuss this story with someone in your family.
