Last month nine members of our Sunday Club made the trip by train to Norwich for our annual outing. We visited the Julian Centre and learnt more about Julian of Norwich and really enjoyed exploring the church. Afterwards we had great fun playing some mini golf and then tucking into a tasty lunch. We also celebrated Mothering Sunday on the 15th and made cards and gifts for our grown-ups. We also thought about Jesus’ mother, Mary, and our Mother Church Norwich Cathedral.

Crib service at Irstead. It was wonderful to welcome so many families and it was fantastic to have over 100 people in church getting into the Christmas spirit. We had lots of fun singing carols and listening to the Christmas story. If you have not previously been before, do consider coming next Christmas, it is the perfect way to start the festivities. Our Sunday Club meetings this term will focus on the miracles that Jesus performed. Last month we started our theme by thinking about how Jesus was able to turn water into wine.
We spent our Sunday Club meetings in November learning about Joseph and his very snazzy coat! In addition, the schools and children also commemorated Remembrance Day with special services and times of silence to allow for prayers and reflection. Please see below all of our events coming up in December and January; the highlight of course being our Christmas Crib service at Irstead on Wednesday 24th December. This is always a great service and really starts the Christmas season off in style! Please do come along for a joyful occasion.
