For children in Early Years, they experience the prayer being said out loud. The key message of the prayer for children of this age are the words ‘Glory Be’, which is a sign of praise, a thank-you to God for sending his Son. Our theme concentrates on building the knowledge that God loves everyone. God is love. The children were invited, as part of their independent activities to decorate a Glory Be prayer to take home and share with their families. ### Glory Be Prayer
