Dear Parents and Carers,
In this Sunday’s Gospel, Jesus begins to prepare his disciples for
his departure from the world. Jesus is returning to his Father
and will make a place ready for each of them in heaven.
Jesus tells the disciples to trust in him. No amount of worrying
will increase their safety or comfort; it’s through trusting in
Jesus that they will find security and hope. We too are called to
trust in Jesus. Through the Holy Spirit we carry on his work
and are empowered to do even greater works.
This does not mean performing a series of great, flashy
miracles. It means being Christ in the world around us,
generously sharing the love he brings into our own lives
with those we meet. This isn’t easy - it never was - but
trust in Jesus and see what happens!
Enjoy hearing your child’s thoughts about this
Sunday’s Gospel and this Wednesday’s word,
which is TRUST.

Sunday 3rd May 2026
On the night before he died, Jesus
spoke to his friends, the disciples.
“Do not let your hearts be troubled,”
he said. “Trust in God and trust in me.
There are many rooms in my Father’s
house, and I am going now to prepare
a place for you. I will come again and take you
with me so that where I am, you may be too.
You know the way to the place where I am going.”
Then Thomas, a disciple, said, “Lord, we do not
know where you are going: how can we know the
way?” Jesus said, “I am the Way, the Truth and
the Life. No one can come to the Father except
through me. If you know me, you know my Father
too. You must believe me when I say that I am in
the Father and the Father is in me. I tell you most
solemnly, whoever believes in me will perform the
same works as I do myself; they will perform even
greater works, because I am going to the Father.”
