The Bubble Church Lynton team are featured in Roots and Shoots this week
It was great to see some of you at Bubble Church this week! We were thinking about the lost sheep. After shepherd lost one of his sheep, he left the other 99 to search for the one sheep. He searched far and wide and was delighted when he found the sheep. Jesus told this story as a metaphor: we are the sheep and Jesus the shepherd and Jesus will always search for us, welcome us and rejoice with us. We made a ball of Play-Doh to symbolise a flock of sheep, took a small bit off to represent the one lost sheep, and then put the small bit back and made a heart to show how much the shepherd loves his sheep - and how God loves usI wonder how hearing that God loves us so much makes us feel? Perhaps you could discuss this with each other at home. The next Bubble Church will be on the 24th May at 9am. Please book here bubblechurch.org as it helps us with catering. We look forward to seeing you there! In the meantime, if there is anything we can be praying about, please do let us know.We have put some photos from our first session in the image gallery on the St Mary's page.
