CHILDREN’S ACTIVITY MORNING
MAUNDY THURSDAY
APRIL 17th 9.30am – 12 noon
What a wonderful morning we had when we enjoyed our Children’s Easter workshop.There was a delightful friendly atmosphere as children and parents arrived and started to create the Garden of Gethsemene by painting boxes to represent rocks and making palm trees from cardboard tubes and newspaper leaves. We had story telling, drama, crafts, and singing and even made an Easter garden in a wheelbarrow.
The children were eager to hear and to act the story of Jesus’ last days in Jerusalem and the morning concluded with everyone taking part in the Last Supper. The children took home all the models they had made and were given a Real Easter Egg with a small booklet of the Easter story.
Thank you to Jane for the planning and organisation of the day and thank you too to all the willing helpers for their input into a most successful morning.

EASTER MORNING SERVICE.
The sun shone on Easter Day and people came to church to praise God and to remember the significance of the day.
CHRIST IS RISEN ALLELUIA!
During the service the cross which had been constructed from the trunk of the Christmas tree and used during Lent to remind people of Christ’s suffering in the days leading to the crucifixion, was transformed into a Living Cross. The congregation brought small bunches of spring flowers and suddenly the bare stark cross was decorated with colourful spring flowers to remind us all of the presence of the Living God.
The service concluded with Holy Communion.
