Faith

A fun game that we play is faith which I first learnt from David McInnes who was rector of St Aldates when I was a student many years ago.

The children stand on the stairs while I stand at the bottom.  They jump off the stairs towards me shouting "faith".  I then I catch them.  As they get more adventurous and trusting in my ability to catch them (hence "faith") they go further up the stairs.

The ultimate faith exercise is for them to face upstairs, close their eyes and fall backwards waiting for me to catch them.
