P RAY E R
CHRISTIAN RELIGIOUS EDUCATION
The CRE programme provides a very valuable opportunity for our
church to impact the local school communities with the love of Christ,
whether it is through involvement with the weekly ½ hour teaching
session or upholding the teams and programme in prayer, encouragement and interest.
Carol, Patsy and Don representing the Waikanae Baptist Church, are
just a small representation of over 2500 volunteer CRE teachers
involved in state primary schools throughout NZ.
With a significant historical event being celebrated in NZ this December
we incorporated the arrival of the Gospel to NZ 200 years ago into our
programme, followed by the message of peace and forgiveness through
the life and death of a young Maori girl named Tarore.
As the year draws to a close for the CRE programme in the two
Waikanae schools there is the thought of what may 2015 bring.
A challenge for next year and as an extension of the involvement of CRE
in the local primary schools, is to consider how our church community
can be involved in practical ways so strengthening relationships with the
school communities and the church.
PRAYER POINTS
Pray that the doors will remain open for the programme to
continue next year
Pray for the end-of-year presentations of ventriloquism and magic by
Ray Cooper as he wraps up the year of learning how to make good
life choices based on Christian values
May the programme have had a positive influence on the attitudes
and behaviour of the students
Give thanks for the great work and dedication of the CRE teams
