Holy Souls Card Company. Meeting 2.

Meeting opened at 2.20 p.m.with thanks from Miss Cranmer for the ideas for our logo. Some will be put on display and we will vote for the best one.

Miss spoke about how we are to make the card and the different options for the designs.
We talked about what "raw materials" we need to make the card.
We suggested items such as: ribbon, glitter, felt pens, religious pictures, sequins, glue, card, feathers, plastic case for the card.

We spoke about getting religious pictures because drawing would be really hard. We decided that we might have to pay for these pictures and this would make the cost of the finished product more expensive. All of the raw materials will cost money and this will make the cost of the card more expensive.

The meeting closed at2.50 p.m.

Listening to God's word

In our RE lessons this term we have been learning how people listen to God's word and calling. Today we went to our Parish Church of Sacred Heart and Holy Souls in Acocks Green to celebrate Mass with the local community.

After Mass we spoke about the special place that the lectern has upon the altar. It is the place that we hear God's word from and the place where we can hear God calling us. Can you find the lectern upon this photo of the Altar of Holy Souls Church.
