This is the time for many assessments for young people in our parish For some, reaching the end of their time in school with GCSEs, A-Levels and the like, but for others, they are just at the beginning. Children at Norton Free will be completing the Phonics Screening Check, and the Multiplication Tables Check.

Lord, we pray:
Keep them from anxiety, and stress.
Grant them peace and enable each to do the best they can.
Lord, may each know that your love for them is not based on success but on grace.
May each know that no matter the result, you are for them and that identity and value are based on your love for each one.
Create a generation secure in the knowledge of your love.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Gift Aid is a UK government scheme allowing charities to reclaim basic rate tax (20%) on donations, boosting the value by 25% at no extra cost to the donor. For every £1 donated, charities can claim an extra 25p, provided the donor is a UK taxpayer who has paid sufficient income or capital gains tax.

If this applies to you, then please find an orange envelope in church to complete your personal details with your donation, or select the option that allows you to do so on the card reader.
