Religious Education Week 5
The Whole school focus theme for this year is: Be Just Like Jesus
To be like Jesus is to be a person willing to put others before yourself, to seek wisdom, and to care about how you interact with all people you come across in life.

Something to Think About
Do you remember when Peter tried to walk on water to Jesus - his faith let him down!
Peter failed often but he kept coming back. It is easy to see ourselves in Peter - doubt, uncertainty, fear and lack of understanding. Peter was fully human, as we are. Yet Peter was the one Jesus chose to lead his community. We do not have to be perfect to be a disciple or a leader! We just need to hang in there and stick with Jesus, to the very end!
The Story
In this week’s gospel story, Jesus is fishing for information - what are people saying about him? Who do they think he is? The disciples all have a go at answering but it is Peter who comes up with the answer: 'You are the Messiah’ and that was how Jesus knew that Peter was to lead the Church.
Peace and best wishes
