Andrea led the session which started with a Treasure hunt to identify things in church that we use for our worship. We also looked at the stained glass windows and as it was a lovely sunny evening, we went outside to design our own. Our session ended with juice and snacks. For more pictures please click the link. No session in May as half term.Next session will be in the Village Hall on Friday 26th June at 6.30pm All school age children, with a parent or carer are welcome. Come and join in the fun!
It was a joy to share this special moment with these people as they confirmed their faith in our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Bishop Joe presided and the choirs of St John’s and St Anne’s provided beautiful music, during the receipt of their first Holy Communion.
