In the Summer term, we are learning more about the parables of Jesus. A parable was a story Jesus told to the crowds, a story which had a meaning and a lesson for those listening.
We are starting by learning more about the parable of the wise and foolish builders. In this parable, Jesus likens the wise man, who listens to his teaching and puts it into practice in his life, to a house that is built on solid rock. When the howling wind and torrential rain come, the house that is built on these foundations will stand firm.
The man who builds on sand, however, will see his house collapse when the inevitable storm arrives.
Watch the video below which tells this Bible story, or look in your Bibles in Matthew 7:24-27.

Dear Father God, Please help us to learn more. Please help us though our tough times and encourage us to try more and try harder. Please help us to be the best we can. Amen.
Dear Father God, Thank you for our amazing team mates. Sorry for all our sins. Please forgive us all as we say this prayer. Amen.
Dear Lord, We pray that you will cover us with protection. We pray as many hands build a house, many hearts build a school. Amen.
