Messy Church
Some Messy Plans... We've decided that our best bet for the time being is to do some 'specials'.
Keep checking back for future events and check out Wigston Benefice Facebook page too.
Prayers Try to be quiet and still for at least one minute. (You can do it! Ask someone to time you if you need to) In your head tell God some of the things you've been thinking about. Maybe something or someone: *you're worried about. *you're excited about. *you know who needs help. *God can help you to help with?
Finish by trying The Lord's Prayer with some actions: https://youtu.be/tOugEQpcc_k Finish off with the Allelu song (complete with funky beat!) https://youtu.be/wTDd8BEPP7o Maybe see if the grown ups at home have got something for tea?! (Don't forget the Grace song... 'de ne ne ne (*click click*)...')
Here's what we usually get up to: Messy Church is a monthly session aimed at families who want to learn about God through activities such as crafts, games and singing. It's aimed mainly at babies and children under eleven years old, but older siblings/cousins/friends are welcome too. All children must be accompanied by a responsible adult (e.g. mum, dad, grandparent, carer) Whilst the hall is being tidied up, we do go into church as well before heading back for dinner! Each session is built around a different Bible story - previous sessions include Who is Jesus?, Prayer, Noah's Ark, Creation, Easter The sessions are free to everyone - why not come and find out more about Jesus together?
