The Sunday Stokers had loads of fun at their Pyjama Party on Sunday morning, hearing all about the next part of Joseph's story. Thrown into prison, Joseph keeps praying to God for help and is able to interpret his fellow prisoners' dreams. This brings him to the attention of the Pharoah himself. When Joseph interprets his dream about 7 thin cows eating 7 fat cows - a prediction of 7 years of plenty followed by 7 years of famine - the Pharoah puts him in charge of gathering food, making him his second-in-command: quite the meteoric rise from being sold into slavery!The children took part in a chopstick challenge to gather as much wheat (sweets!) as they could. Then they made some rather clever cows to represent the ones in Pharoah's dream. After a sing-song, they enjoyed a treat of hot chocolate, marshmallows and cream before heading to church...... in their pyjamas!Well done, Stokers! Next month: the final part of Joseph's story. Children are welcome to join us on Sunday 16th November to find out what happens next to Joseph!
A big thank you to everyone who came along to perform, listen, join in, and support our Community Concert! It was a wonderful evening filled with music, laughter, and community spirit. The audience enjoyed a fantastic variety of performances — from well-loved classics and original pieces to poetry, jazz, and lively singalongs. It truly was a fun-filled night that celebrated the amazing talent and spirit of our community!https://www.facebook.com/StokeStMichaelChurch
