Activities for children of all ages
… let Rhiannon and Rob help you get Christmas in focus.
LOTS is happening with the various children’s ministries…
- Journey daily with Rhiannon as she gets ready for Christmas on the CBC Junior Church channel.
- Christ Centred Christmas Bake off – Tuesday 22nd December: Start preparing now for the first CBC Bake off!! Please confirm entry and get details here: Baking – Corsham Baptist Church. We need Judges!! (Help out, email Cathy D). Prizes to be won for the bake!!
- A Christmas Trail – the Road to Bethlehem* – aka Nativity Trail is being organised by our lovely John & Nathalie P and Abi B. Get in touch if you’d like to help out.
- A new Junior Church resource page has been created to pull all these things together. If you have an activity your little ones (pre-school and key-stage 1) have loved and that helps them love Jesus then share it with one of the Junior Church teachers and you can be a published artist, author, baker or musician! If it goes well we hope to start a new theme in the New Year.
So let’s get festive and celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ who remains sovereign. May these seasons be marked, not by being miserable but how we shine and continue to uphold the Lord our God.
Souper Friday – in the news
Thanks to those who have come forward to help, though there is still room to get involved. Did you see our splash in the Gazette and Herald? Full details about this exciting and very relevant ministry can be found here.
