Peg Riley – Chaplain

At the start of the year , our Head of Chapel , Hannah Langley , shared with the school her goals for the Chapel Committee . This is part of her message :
“ I want our main goal this year , as a team , as a school , to be that we connect each and every one of you to the wifi . I ’ m talking about God ’ s wifi ; faith . Because I believe that faith is like wifi . It ’ s invisible but has the power to connect you to anything and everything from anywhere . The Chapel Committee will support and encourage you all throughout the year as you find ways to connect to the wifi , and develop your faith further . The moment I want to capture this year is the one where I look out at all of you and see that in one moment we are all connected to the same wifi .
Most people are never fully present in the now because , unconsciously , they believe that the next moment must be more important than this one . But then you miss your whole life , waiting for the next moment . So live in the moment happening now , and connect with it , connect with the people around you , connect with the greater power that surrounds you , that supports you and pushes you up and over those ever moving mountains .
Life is happening now , don ’ t wait , capture those moments and hold them tightly within your hearts .”
