The Lord’s Prayer

Our Father in Heaven

Hallowed be your name

Your Kingdom come

Your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us today our daily bread

And forgive us our sins

As we forgive those who sin against us.

Lead us not into temptation

But deliver us from evil.

For the Kingdom ,the power and the glory are yours

Now and forever

Amen.

1. Find out about the Lord’s Prayer here  and here  
2. Read the Lord’s prayer and learn it. A good way to learn something is to write it down and / say it aloud several times. You could ask someone to test you and, once you know it, ask them to test you few days later to see if you still know it.
3. I have separated the Lord’s Prayer into different coloured sections. I wonder what each different section means? How might you explain it to someone? Write a few sentences for each section to explain what it means.
4. Rewrite the prayer in your own words.
5. Read Matthew 6:5-15 in a Bible (you can search online if you don’t have a Bible - click the picture of a  Bible).
   1. What do you think Jesus thought about the people who liked to show off with long words when they prayed in public?

   3. Why do you think that some people showed off when they prayed?
