Set up your worship table or centre of the class circle with the normal time (green) cloth and take out the Bible, cross and light candle.

Opening responses
If you have school responses or opening words for collective worship say them together or say the following:

We take out the Bible
 –  and think about God the Father
We take out the cross
 –  and think about God’s son, Jesus
We light the candle
 –  and think about God , the Holy Spirit

If you are using this for class worship – take out the items in the box (see notes for the teacher) and place them in the centre

Big question
I wonder what we are going to be thinking about today

Hold up or point to the Bible and explain that this year we are going to be journeying through the Bible together in our collective worship.

When we read a book where do we start?

That’s right at the beginning . . .
