# Taking responsibility for our family members

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-matthew-s-cofe-primary/images/blog/Holy_Bible(1).jpg)   16 October 2023   [Mr Mackley](https://www.stmatthewspreston.co.uk/blog/author/head)   [Worship](https://www.stmatthewspreston.co.uk/blog/category/worship)

This is the final worship in ouor series considering 'Taking Responsibility'.

An old Ethipoian folk tale about 2 brothers is the focus and we consider how we treat each other as caring family members.

Thank you for this worship. We enjoyed the story; it was not one we were familiar with. We are glad that the younger brother showed such selflessness and that through his actions was able to guide his brother to a better path.
From everyone in 6W

We enjoyed the Ethiopian story and reflected on what it means to be part of our school family.
