This afternoon, the ever popular Rev. Clare joined us for a chat about life as a minister. This was the final event in our Careers in the Community focus. It was SO good to see her and talk about different aspects of her work (listening, praise, leading, prayer and most importantly…love). She was able to give an insight into the many roles of a minister – the job isn’t just an hour on a Sunday! The pupils also took the opportunity to ask her lots of questions too.
Moreover, it gave us the chance to say a HUGE thank you to her as she is retiring as a minister and so won’t be leading church services for us in school or across the road in Leswalt Church. She did however promise to come and visit us sometime with her gospel choir – so at least it’s just a goodbye for now.
Alexander and Fraser presented her with a handmade card designed and created by Leswalt Primary pupils, a bouquet of flowers, a Leswalt Primary pen and an extra-special certificate ‘Pride of Leswalt’, thanking her for being such a good friend to us all at school!
Looking forward to seeing you again soon Rev. Clare!
