St@PH
St Andrew's At Park Hill
DATE:
27th
January 2007
TIME:
10.30am
VENUE:
Park
Hill
Primary
School
EVENT: St@PH
Why
did six children run around the dining room at
Park
Hill
School
, searching under
the tables, on top of cupboards and behind chairs?
Because they were looking for the lost sheep, of course!
Shaun (the sheep) was eventually found by Olivia, and rescued by Tom from
on top of the freezer.
This
St@PH service started with a welcome by Marc, group responses and a worship
session led by Marc on guitar, Hannah “who hits things” and Caroline on
piano. They were ably assisted by
Mark S, who projected the song words onto a screen for those unfamiliar with the
contemporary tunes. The children
enjoyed singing and dancing before leaving the main service with Emma, Jo and
Kirsten.
The
children then spent their session listening to a child-friendly version of the
parable that Jesus had told his followers (Matthew 18 v 12 – 14) and hiding
their own cotton-wool covered sheep on a hillside scene.
They set about sticking their sheep behind flowers, trees, rocks and
walls, while the older children decided to trick Marc by making it impossible
for him to find their lost sheep.
The
adults missed out on all this fun, and had to remain in the main hall listening
to the proper Bible version of the Parable, Steve’s sermon and Sue’s
intercessions. I’m sure they had
fun, but during the closing “Show and Tell” session they all seemed a little
jealous of the work produced by the children, and appeared impressed when
Bethany
knew that if we
got lost like the sheep, Jesus would come looking for us!
Come
and join us for more fun, singing, activities and learning on Sunday 24th
February, same time, same place. Be
there – or be lost like Shaun the sheep!
