9. Receive He has told you, O mortal, what is good;
and what does the Lord require of you
but to do justice, and to love kindness,
and to walk humbly with your God?
From the book of the prophet Micah, chapter 6, verse 8

10. Engage
In November 2009, the UN General Assembly declared 18 July "Nelson Mandela International Day" in recognition of the former South African President’s contribution to the culture of peace and freedom.

11. Engage Video suggestion … Nelson Mandela, mini biography
Some discussion ideas …
The UN encourages everyone to spend 67 minutes (one minute for every year that Nelson Mandela gave working for his community) doing something good for the community – what could you do?
Which famous people inspire you?
Discussion techniques - Go back to the Bible passage ask “How does the theme link with the Bible passage?”
Discuss the question in pairs for 30 seconds then invite a response from each pair.
Use quick-fire answers e.g. throw a soft bean bag / toy to a student, when they answer they throw it back and you quickly throw to another student.
Simplify the question - Invite quick one-word answers, write them on the board, then reflect on the answers – see connections.
Activity suggestion … see how much you remember from the video – try this quiz

12. Respond
[Reflect for a minute on the worship theme and our engagement …]
God,
We thank you for people, like Nelson Mandela, who inspire us.
Help us use that inspiration to do good work for our community.
Amen
Prayer / reflection technique – Give a summary of the theme and any responses that students may have made, then invite everyone to be still (remind no books open etc – lessen distraction). To pray or reflect on today’s worship. Be quiet for one minute. Then say the prayer …

13. Go out into the world with the light of Christ
Let us bless the Lord
Thanks be to God
Go out into the world with the light of Christ
