Over Easter weekend Christians will be taking time to pray and reflect on their lives. Being committed to faith even in times of challenge connects us to the Easter story. Spring is bringing in light as did Jesus through his resurrection. Enjoy time with family & cadet family ✝️

Holy Saturday marks the end of Holy Week and is a day of reflection and waiting for Christ’s resurrection. 🙏 The Deputy Chaplain General shares some thoughtful words below relating to the period between crucifixion and resurrection. ✝ #HolyWeek2025 @churchofengland

This is one of the most beautiful moments you will ever witness. Sir Nicholas Winton helped 669 children — most of them Jewish — escape the Holocaust. His humanitarian accomplishments would remain unknown and unnoticed by the world for nearly 50 years. Then in 1988 he was invited to the BBC TV show That's Life!. There he sat — unknowingly — as part of the studio audience, surrounded by the children he had rescued. They were now adults. Then they surprised him with one of the greatest gifts of all time. Their presence. They were there, all alive — because of him. Not only was he reunited with dozens of children he had saved, but he was also introduced to many of their children and grandchildren. Please remember Sir Nicholas Winton, for his humanitarian operation known as the Czech Kindertransport. Sir Nicholas George Winton, a British stockbroker, and a gift to this planet, left us on July 1, 2015, at the age of 106. May his memory forever be a blessing and inspiration to all. Please share. International Holocaust Day cannot be forgotten. But many are working to make that happen. 🕯️ ♥️

The C of E may have its troubles at the top, but at the sharp end things seem to be thriving. The church I went to this morning was standing-room only, and everyone belted out the hymns and carols with gusto. Friends tell me the same from their Christmas services.

“I am so glad that Jesus was born in a stable. Because my soul is so much like a stable. It is so poor and in unsatisfactory condition —yet I believe if Jesus can be born in a stable, maybe he can also be born in me.” — Dorothy Day

Today, our entire school community gathers for two Remembrance Day services, honouring the bravery and sacrifice of those who served. 🕊️ Together, we remember the courage, dedication, and resilience of so many, past and present, who fought for peace and a better future.

For Armistice Day our College Archivist has shared pictures of a few of the OE soldiers that CCF cadets will be representing on Monday 11th November. They have been given a short biography on an OE soldier, so they are able to give a short talk about them. #remembrancesunday

Living a Meaningful Life - In this short video from our archive His Holiness the Dalai Lama reflects on the essence of living a meaningful life, emphasizing that true happiness is not found in material wealth, fame, or power, but through inner values such as compassion, during his visit to Woodstock, NY, USA on September 21, 2006.

Today in 1944 Lt Bill Lewis (Forest House 1936-39) successfully landed at Ver Sur Mer on Gold Beach in his amphibious Duplex Drive (DD) tank. Regretfully he was killed later that day in La Rivière. We will remember. ⁦@EpsomCollegeUK⁩ ⁦⁦⁦⁦@DevelopmentOE⁩

"Let me assure you, friends: it would simply not be possible to navigate service life without the ability to talk, to confide, to reflect, to laugh, to cry, or to remember. And that’s what our service chaplains help us to do." - Air Vice-Marshal Tim Jones CBE #GA2024

Ⲡⲓⲭ̀ⲣⲓⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ CHRIST IS RISEN “Then their eyes were opened and they knew Him; and He vanished from their sight. And they said to one another, ‘Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us on the road, and while He opened the Scriptures to us?’” Luke 24:30-33 May the Lord of the Glorious #Resurrection be revealed to you in the most beautiful and powerful of ways this #EmmausMonday and every day.

Chaplains from the Royal Army Chaplains’ Department are there for all soldiers and their families, providing pastoral care, spiritual support and moral guidance. #CaringForTheArmysPeople #CalledToServe
Officer Cadets pause for a Field Service on Exercise Dynamic Victory conducted by a Chaplain. The role of the Chaplain is fundamental for those with religious beliefs, but also in support of the mental well-being of service personnel and families. #Chaplain #Sandhurst #Army
