At the Last Supper, as Jesus prepared to return to his Father,

he instructed his disciples in a new commandment, to love one another.

At Christ Church Ainsworth we try and follow Jesus example by showing love for our friends, our school, our community and the wider world. When God's love shines through us, it shows the world that we belong to him - we show that we are Christians through our love.
