On Wednesday 7th March a group of Year 8 students took part in a Women’s World Day of Prayer services at St Martins Church, Desford. The service was written by ladies in Suriname and focused on reflecting on what humans are doing to God’s beautiful world.

It was a pleasure to be invited by the Church, and the student thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to dress up in costumes reflective of cultures around the would and retell the stories of these women with elements of dramatic expression.

The student brought a level of vibrancy to the service, and articulated the experiences of women internationally with a high level of maturity.
