Chaplain's Remarks
Hey family of Prescott Primary Northern!
It’s Pr Mal here, from our amazing chaplain team. I hope you are well and keeping strong as we’ve made it to the halfway point of the year. I thought I’d share a thought from one of my worships with the staff this week.
I’ve been looking through Acts for worships and we got to Acts chapter 7. Here Stephen, who is a man of God, stands before the governing group of Jews called the Sanhedrin. He had his chance to talk to the Sanhedrin and he started talking about people in the Old Testament, drawing examples of what they did.
The main part of the story I want to focus on is when Stephen talks about the tabernacle. The tabernacle back in the day was known as the place where God dwelled amongst the Israelites. It was the belief at the time.
Stephen's message to the Sanhedrin that day - and to us today - is that God doesn’t just dwell in the tabernacle or church. God dwells with us everywhere we are. In our homes, in our classroom, wherever we go. My encouragement to you all as we go into our holidays is to know that wherever you are and however you are going, that God dwells there with you.
I pray that you all have an amazing, enjoyable holiday break.
Blessings,
Pr Mal, Pr Tiana and Pr Roland.
