This week’s word is Missionary Discipleship: as we are journeying through our fourth week of Eastertide.
Your mission is to complete Mrs Carter’s Challenge … Mrs Carter is challenging you to complete a full term of daily acts to help you on your journey to becoming a missionary disciple – how many can you complete? Cross off the challenges as you go, and when you have completed it, bring it in to show your Head of School and receive some well-deserved House Points.
Comment down below what you and your classmates have been doing towards this mission – how are you going to live it out?
Consider these three things from today’s Weekly Word Assembly:
- What did it make you think about?
- How did it make you feel?
- What are you going to do as a result?
Remember to leave your class’ name!

It made us think about how we can be missionary disciples each and everyday. We thought about examples of how we could do this.
It made us feel grateful because we are carrying out our Gospel value of service.
As a result, we are going to go home this weekend and complete Mrs Carter’s homework task. We are also going to follow in the footsteps of St. Paul because he is the patron saint of missionaries.
Miss Dodd’s class:
It made us think about our current RE unit and how the people we have been learning about are examples of missionary disciples: Mrs Maricho, who works for Mission Together, left her successful career to dedicate her life to teaching children, helping them to come closer to God. She has been driven to do this by listening to God’s word and taking inspiration from Him – ‘let the little children come to me’.
It made me feel like I have some responsibility to act and speak in a way that is positive and demonstrates the teachings of God.
I am going to keep a diary of my daily actions or words that show I am a follower of Jesus.
