After the summer break our Sunday Club will start again the 2nd Sunday in September which is the 10th September, and then follow the pattern of every 2nd  and 4th Sunday each month.

SEPT 10th & 24th
OCT 8th & 22nd
NOV 12th & 26th

We will start up at the church at 10:15am as usual and go down to the halls after  the children's address. It will be wonderful to welcome all our children back!

On our first Sunday back it is a fun and games session – so make sure you don’t  miss it! We will catch up on all the news over a cuppa too!

In June, to mark the end of term, we had a lovely lunch with our Sunday Club  families in our halls on Sunday 11th June – which also coincided with the baptism of four of our children.

It was a very joyous occasion for Joe and the church family. The Sunday Club presented Joe with a very large pillar candle and every family had tied a coloured ribbon around it with little wooden hearts attached that were
signed by the children and their parents – wishing both Joe and Violet a very  happy retirement and “Lang may yer Lum Reek”.

We are starting the new church year with new helpers, as a few of the Mums are stepping up to help run our Sunday Club on a rota basis. However, if you read  this and if you have time to help on a Sunday now and again, please join us!

I would like to share a prayer from one of our Mums:

Thank you, Lord, for the unsung heroes of our church life, who allow us to  remember that a church is not just made by its teaching, preaching, prayer and  worship but by the way that the members love and serve one another. For all  they are and all they do, to serve the church, your body on earth, we praise and  thank you Lord. This day, may we remember to thank them for their kindness  that enriches our lives. 

Amen

Please pray for our Sunday Club and all the helpers at the start of this new church year and also praying for all the children as they start nursery or school  or move up to High School.
