Forgiveness

Everyone makes mistakes, it’s part of being human. Sometimes our mistakes hurt others and then we need to say
sorry. Sometimes mistakes made by other people hurt us. When this happens we need to be able to forgive.
Forgiveness can be difficult and costly but without it a new start is impossible.
Talk together about:
• A time when you needed to say sorry
• A time you didn’t say sorry but wish you had
• A time when you had to forgive someone who had hurt or upset you
• How it feels when you are given a new start because someone has forgiven you

Value

Courage

Courage is not the absence of fear, but the willingness to overcome that fear.”
Nelson Mandela

Thought of the Day

Courage

Being courageous can mean different things to different people. For example, one person may think it easy to speak in front of a large audience, whilst another would need to find lots of courage to do this. Everyone faces challenges from time to time, and we have to find courage to overcome them.
Talk together about:
• The different challenges that each family member faces
• Who or what helps us find courage?
• Is there someone that we admire because of the courage that theyhave shown?
