PRAYER Reborn of Christ
EXAMS
Almighty ever-living God, when Christ was baptised in the River Jordan and as the Holy Spirit descended upon him, You declared Him Your beloved Son. Grant that we, Your children, reborn of water and the Holy Spirit, may always be well pleasing to You. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Please be advised that the following GCE/GCSE exams will be taking place on the above date.
ECO FACT If every UK household installed just one energy efficient bulb tomorrow, we’d save £80 million a year and enough electricity to power the UK’s street lighting for 7 months. We’d also save half a million tonnes of carbon dioxide a year.
