What is Faith?

The Bible says:

'Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.' Hebrews 11:1

At Bowdon Church School 

Our members were voted by their peers based on the following criteria:

• They are happy to speak out in public to a range of audiences
• They are fair and listen to the views of all
• They want to develop and deepen their relationship with God
• They can ask the BIG questions about Christianity
• They want to develop our faith as a school

Our focus points for this year are:

• encouraging open discussion about faith (including no faith and faiths other than Christianity) and asking big and difficult questions
• making prayer an easy thing to do and a part of everyday life (if wished)
• demonstrating our faith through action, such as helping, campaigning and showing love
• involvement in the Church of England National Younger Leaders initiative
• having fun!

We have suggestion boxes in each classroom, we have our own Google Classroom for sharing ideas and discussing issues, and we meet formally at least twice a half term.
