As we begin a new academic year, I would like to extend my very best wishes to all our church school headteachers, staff, governors, pupils, and families. I hope that over the summer break you have had the opportunity to rest and recharge, enjoy your hobbies and interests, and spend precious time with family and friends.
‘Do you believe that I am able to do this?’ (Matthew 9.28)
10 As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all their multitude. And on the seventh day God finished the work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all the work that he had done. So God blessed the seventh day and hallowed it, because on it God rested from all the work that he had done in creation.
Genesis 2:1-3
