The Primary School Wednesday Word is an outreach which shares Sunday's Gospel with all school families, in a unique way.
Each family usually receives the weekly handout consisting of high-quality Sunday Gospel leaflets and booklets. This is a weekly Gospel 'gift' from the school to the child to take home, which then becomes a 'gift' from the child to the whole family.
While schools are closed, The Wednesday Word are offering free-of-charge 'online' editions until things return to normal.

CAFOD have recorded two podcasts to pray the rosary, reflecting on the joyful and luminous mysteries as well as themes of hunger, poverty and creation. There are also additional resources for praying the rosary with children.
