It's nearly time for our stickiest service of the year! We are looking forward to welcoming you to Messy Pancakes, on Shrove Tuesday, 17th February at 3pm at our St John's Site. Create an emoji face from a pancake and fruit. Try our challenging pancake obstacle race. Make a card for a family member or friend who's having a tough time. Find desert creatures in the sand or take part in the treasure hunt. Make a desert scene, a playdough cactus or a paper chain snake. We'll be using these and more activities to help us reflect on how the difficult time Jesus spent in the desert can help us when we are having a difficult time. And stay on after the celebration for pancakes home cooked by our team of expert pancake chefs! This is a free activity. It is suitable for all the family - activities are designed for families with children under 11 to work on together. Children must be accompanied by an adult. After Messy Pancakes, our next Messy Service will be Messy Easter, on Good Friday, 3rd April, at 10am at our St John's Site. Messy Church logo © Bible Reading Fellowship 2021. See messychurch.org.uk

We actively welcome families with children of all ages. If your child is a baby or a toddler, they will remain with you for the duration of the service. A welcomer will give you a Toddler Bag as you come in - these contain a variety of toys and games to entertain your child. We are aware that it can be very hard for a toddler to remain in their seat throughout the service. If your child is getting restless, there is space on the carpeted area at the back where they can move about - and don't worry at all if they make a noise!
