spring messy church

On Sunday afternoon, we had our first Messy Church of the year, thinking about spring and the promise of new life at Easter in Gifford Village Hall. We had a lot of fun decorating biscuits, with great help from our teenage volunteers, painting watercolour flowers and seasonal ceramic decorations, making caterpillars and butterflies, and having our faces beautifully painted.

Then, we heard the Easter story via a wonderful lego video, and had a children's prayer with seashells and pebbles.

And then we shared a lovely supper of macaroni cheese and cake. A very joyful afternoon!
