To encourage younger generations to worship the Lord, the video game Minecraft that allows players to build anything they'd like using blocks was played.



Becky Dyball, a Reverend from Sawtry, Cambridgeshire, joined the game to discuss Bible stories in a different way.



She also included her boss, Bishop of Ely, with the support of her family.



"The idea... was born out of an attempt to engage the children... and entice them with the idea of collective worship," she told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire.



The Right Reverend Stephen Conway Bishop of Ely said: "I am so happy to have been a part of a new way of sharing Bible Stories and the good news about Jesus in this way.



"It is a fantastic resource for collective worship in our schools which I commend warmly."
