You may have spotted that I didn’t blog last week as it was the Easter week so this week is a double blog!
Over the next few weeks I am going to focus on our core Christian values and what better way to start this off than with my favourite value, yes you have guessed it, perseverance.
I can’t think of better example of perseverance to share with you than the story of Captain Tom Moore. Captain Tom Moore is a 99 year old war veteran who has already raised more than 1 million pounds for the NHS by setting himself the challenge of walking 100 lengths of his back garden before his 100th birthday on the 30th April. This is no mean feat for anyone but especially for someone who is nearly 100 years old! True perseverance will be needed by Tom to help him complete his challenge. What an incredible person!
Sadly Captain Tom’s birthday celebrations have had to be cancelled because the country is on lockdown. So this week I would like you to help Tom celebrate his birthday by making him a birthday card. This is a great way not only to wish him Happy 100th Birthday but also thank him for being a national hero.
If you would like to send a birthday card to Tom please send it to the following address
Captain Tom Moore
C/O Post Office Limited
67 Bedford Road
Marston Moretaine
MK43 0LA
Bedfordshire, England
Please don’t forget to put that you are a pupil at All Souls Primary School in Westminster. Let’s work together to send Tom a 100 cards, just from All Souls.
Till next week. Stay safe. Missing you all
