As a church, we are investigating the possibility of doing a Sunday Club as part of the 10.00am service. This will enable our Church to help our children explore what it means to be followers of Jesus Christ. As part of this we are preparing materials and we have discovered that we are in need of some cardboard shoe boxes that we can use to store our stories in. They need to be the type of shoebox that has a completely separate lid. Please see Sian or Claire for more details. DATES FOR THE DIARY Wednesday 7th November at 1.30pm.
