Enniskillen Union hold mission event in two venues The Enniskillen CE Union held a Missionary Event on Saturday 2nd March 2019. Junior CEs from around the Union met in Brookeborough church and halls in the afternoon. Jan, from MAF, spoke to the children about the work that MAF do in many countries around the world. The children enjoyed learning about some of the things that have been carried in MAF planes! They also enjoyed having the chance to make and fly their own paper planes in the church! The afternoon finished with some lovely snacks and the chance to make a craft to bring home. That evening, the Young People met in Lisbellaw, and again Jan shared about the work that MAF do, flying planes into some of the most remote places in the world to provide practical help and assistance, as well as sharing God’s amazing love with the people they help.
Many thanks to Jan from MAF, and the leaders in Brookeborough and Lisbellaw for hosting these events – it was great to learn more about the important work that MAF are doing, and how we can support them.
KNOCKNINNEY JUNIORS Knockninney Juniors celebrate silver anniversary Knockninny Junior CE held their Parents’ and Friends’ Night in Knockninny Methodist Church on Sunday 28th April 2019.
The children led the service on the theme of The Fruits of the Spirit, with prayers, readings and songs. Mr Alastair McFarland spoke to the children about different types of fruit, and how we can show the Fruits of the Spirit in our lives. The evening ended with the children being presented with a token as a celebration of their year in CE. This was the 25th Anniversary of Junior CE in Knockninny. The first meeting was arranged by Daphne Foster and Steven Foster in September 1994. Daphne has faithfully led the Junior CE since then, and Steven was also at the service to see his nephew and nieces take part. The evening ended with supper and fellowship in the hall, as we looked forward to many more years of Christian Endeavour in Knockninny.
