Mini Vinnies
St. Teresa's Mini Vinnies
‘Mini Vinnies’ is a St. Vincent de Paul Group in a Primary School. At St. Teresa’s we have a group of Year 6 pupils who get together to pray, and to organise and talk about helping others in need within our school community and beyond. What makes Mini Vinnies such a valuable experience for the children who are part of it, is the change it makes in our school community. We look to develop the prayer life of our school.
Our Mini Vinnies group meet once a week during break-time.
What happens at a Mini Vinnies’ meeting?
Our ‘President’ leads the meeting and organises the group. Mrs Smalldon co-ordinates the group and gives help and practical advice. The President opens the meeting with a prayer.
A short spiritual reading/reflection/piece of music/meditation follows. The Group members take turns to do this.
- Group members then talk about the Mini Vinnies’ activities they have done since the previous meeting.
- Any future plans are then discussed.
- The President concludes the meeting with a prayer.
