Untidy Crafts at St Mary's
We are currently unable to hold pre service crafts but you will have “craft in a bag” to take home.
Every month at St Mary's, before the family service we hold our 'Untidy Crafts' which consists of crafts and activities for the children. This is a very popular morning with young families and a time to meet and chat before the family friendly service. The children then share the things they have created (which are based on the theme of the service) with the whole congregation during the service. Some months we hold 'Tidy Crafts' which is along the same lines but a little less mess!
Join us for our next Untidy Crafts from 10.15am before the Family Service at 11am.
Please note change of time.
See the Services page for further details of our next session.
Everyone welcome!
At a recent family service, Father Simon told the story of of Abraham, Sarah and Isaac, and acted it out with the children.
