It was the first meeting for the New Year. We talked about NY Resolutions, and how difficult it can be to keep them. We explored our theme of ‘Walking with Jesus’ as we looked at John 14:6. There are always lots of differentiated activities for the youngsters to try. Great fun and laughs were had as we made painted footprints and all finished off with fish, chips and mushy peas! Next meeting February 9th. All school age youngsters welcome with parent or carer.

The service paints many vivid pictures of what happens on the Christian way. There is the signing of the cross on the forehead, that invisible badge of faith worn in the Christian journey; there is the ‘drowning’ in the water where we believe we die to sin and are raised to new life; and there is the lighted candle symbolising the light of Christ conquering the darkness of evil. Everyone who is baptised walks in that light for the rest of their lives. Baptism .. If you are not baptised, please speak to Reverend Lesley and fill in the form attached.
