Using Scripture Union "Light" material, we continue to learn about the love of God through studying Bible stories in a fun way - using drama, puzzles, games, craft - as well as having opportunities for discussion. Most recently we concentrated on some of the parables of Jesus.

Our Nativity Play was a modern version of the Papa Panov story, which is about selfless giving to others. We needed a model stable and figures of Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus. These things came to us by way of the Christmas Fair - God moves in mysterious ways!

Although small in number, we continue to support UNICEF through the annual Jar of Grace Appeal and support 10-year-old Sarhad in Palestine through Biblelands. We recently received a Christmas Card from him in return for the pictures and letters which the children had sent.

We had a glorious sunny afternoon to visit Five Sisters Zoo in May and, fortunately, the Christmas Disco wasn't cancelled, so the children had a good time there.

Thanks go to Mary Arndt, and Ann Scott who faithfully continue at beginners and Sunday Seekers - Ann even walked all the way in the snow from Meadowpark one Sunday to be with us. That's dedication.
