Children's Mental Health Week

This morning in our worship time we have focused on talking about our feelings and how we have a sense of belonging as part of Children's Mental Health Week.

When we feel like we belong, we feel happy, safe, and ready to learn and play. It helps us grow strong in our minds and bodies, and it makes it easier to make friends, do well in school, and feel good about ourselves.

Children have looked at how to help others and themselves feel like they belong.

                "Be somebody who makes everybody feel like a somebody"

Our prayer today:

Dear God,

Please help us to feel loved and accept ourselves for who we are. Please guide us to remember that we all have a place where we are accepted, cared for, and loved. Thank you for our friends, family, school and community. Please give us the wisdom to connect with others if we are feeling sad or worried and help us to remember that we are never alone.
Amen.
