Today, we had a workshop to find out more about Judaism. We read from the Torah and noticed some of the similarities between that and the Bible. We noticed that when reading from the Torah it is read from right to left and Jewish people use a yad to show respect instead of touching it. We got to see lots of Jewish symbols and hold important Jewish artefacts such as the menorah, yad and wear kippahs.

Over the next few weeks we will be looking at the Beatitudes that Jesus delivered during a sermon on a mountainside to his twelve disciples. We will be looking closely at the meaning of each Beatitude and addressing common misconceptions about their meanings. 

Today, we each took turns in groups to roleplay Jesus delivering the Beatitudes to his disciples.

Over the past few weeks we have been exploring

the story of Moses and the Burning Bush - Exodus 3.1-22; 4.1-20.

To help us remember each part of the story, we spent some time roleplaying the key parts,

using a script to help us remember the conversation between God and Moses.
