Education Sunday 2022, 11th September 2022
Education Sunday will be marked by the churches on 11 September 2022
The theme for this year is ‘You are not lost!’
This year’s readings are:
Jeremiah 4.11-12, 22-28
Psalm 14
Luke 15.1-10
1 Timothy 1.12-17
Although some of the resources will make reference to other passages, the main focus will be on Luke 15.1-10: the parables of the lost sheep and the lost coin.
Education Sunday 2022 resources are available to download;
Pray for young people on A-level, BTEC and T-level results day
Pray for young people on A-level, BTEC and T-level results day
We ask you to pray for all the young people who have received results today, and to give thanks for their teachers, who have guided and supported them.
The Methodist Church has a prayer for young people receiving results, which you can find here.
You can find resources to help your church support those who are going to university, or young people who come to your community as students here.
Bookmark for Year 6 Children
We’ve produced a bookmark to remind children who are moving from primary to secondary school, that God is with them, and that you are praying for them.
You can download it here.
Chaplaincy in further education - an opportunity to find out more - online event on 11 or 14 Oct
Getting Involved in FE Chaplaincy… The Centre for Chaplaincy in Education are hosting an online event which is aimed at anyone that wants to know more about FE chaplaincy, whether from a personal perspective, or as part of exploring what churches might be able to get involved in.
There's no commitment to do anything following the event - but if FE chaplaincy captures your interest, it might lead somewhere exciting. There are two opportunities to attend this event (each one will have the same content):
Monday 11th October, 7.30pm - 8.15pm
Thursday 14th October, 11.00am - 11.45am.
This event is a collaboration between the Methodist Church and West Midlands Churches' FE Council.
