Each week we share our reflection here. We would strongly encourage parents/carers to engage in developing their children's faith by sharing this reflection together as a family. As a family you can discuss the message of the gospel, say the prayer together and share what personal messages we can take from this going forward. ### Collective Worship Tuesday 9th May 725 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Collective_Worship_9TH_May.pdf) Monday 24th April 730 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Collective_Worship_24th_April.pdf) Monday 27th March 725 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Collective_Worship_27th_March_(1).pdf) Monday 20th March 668 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Collective_Worship_20th_March.pdf) Monday 6th March 908 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Collective_Worship_6th_March.pdf) Monday 13th February 954 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Collective_Worship_12th_FEB.pdf) Monday 6th February 883 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Collective_Worship_6TH_FEB.pdf) Monday 30th January 942 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Collective_Worship_30th__JAN.pdf) Monday 23rd January 1.02 MB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Collective_Worship_23rd__JAN.pdf) Monday 17th January 896 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Prayer_and_Worship_JAN_17TH.pdf) ### Department Prayers Art 59 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Department_Prayers/Department_Prayers_-_Art.pdf) Business 59 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Department_Prayers/Department_Prayers_-_Business.pdf) English 59 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Department_Prayers/Department_Prayers_-_English.pdf) Food Studies 59 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Department_Prayers/Department_Prayers_-_Food_Studies.pdf) French 58 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Department_Prayers/Department_Prayers_-_French.pdf) Geography 590 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Geography(3).pdf) Health and Social Care 60 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Department_Prayers/Department_Prayers_-_Health_and_Social_Care.pdf) History 589 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/History(1).pdf) Mathematics 59 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Department_Prayers/Department_Prayers_-_Mathematics.pdf) Media Studies 60 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Department_Prayers/Department_Prayers_-_Media_Studies.pdf) Physical Education 60 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Department_Prayers/Department_Prayers_-_Physical_Education.pdf) Science 61 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/files/documents/Department_Prayers/Department_Prayers_-_Science.pdf) **Powerful Prayers** At Bishop Challoner, we keep prayer at the heart of all we do. In our faith, it is so important to pray and talk to God. There are different types of prayer and different reasons we pray for. We can pray in gratitude, intercession, lifting concerns or just to have a conversation with God. Matthew 7:7 ”Ask, and it will be given to you seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. Matthew 21:22 And whatever you ask in **prayer**, you will receive, if you have faith.” ... Mark 11:24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in **prayer**, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. We have selected some powerful prayers that will be key to building a relationship with God and we hope you take time out of your day to pray these prayers.
