This week’s is on Saul’s conversion. There is a blindfold drawing challenge in the middle of it, so have some colours, paper and a blindfold ready to go! Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8ehQsCyOiI&feature=youtu.be (Thanks to Jenny for finding this one!) If you are in EPIC why don’t you join HTB youth again this term but on the ‘Bit Extra’ which is live from 11am on Sunday mornings and looks good to watch. You will find it here: https://www.htb.org/youth. It was great to have some of the children at our games session yesterday afternoon for those in Unlimited. We will be changing the times to Tuesday afternoons from 4.15pm and next week we will be starting our story time and craft sessions for those in Energize (age 3-Yr1s) on Thursday afternoons. I will send out the Zoom links for each session and some information about what you might need!

Looking forward to 2021, we're reminded today of the faithfulness of God as we step into the new year.

The old things have gone; everything is made new!’ (2 Corinthians 5:17)). How often do we feel like we need to press the reset button on our lives or in tricky situations? Things have not worked out the way we hoped, everything is a mess and if only I could go back and start again! This week, we will be discovering for ourselves that each one of us has an opportunity to start again when it comes to God through his grace, his forgiveness and his love. It’s 2021! Here is a link to a Messy Church at home session that explores New Beginnings using the verse above from 2 Corinthians. There are a few activities you may wish to do as a family and talk with your children about new beginnings with God as you begin a new year together. https://messychurch.org.uk/sites/default/files/uploads/pdf/New%20beginnings%20at%20home.pdf While you are watching the main talk, children could watch Superbook’s ‘Noah and the Ark’ the story about new beginnings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1p5ocaJzTM We suggest that EPIC might like to watch our main talk. We pray you have a great time this week, exploring the bible and getting to know God as a family. We would love to hear your stories of what your children have been getting out of their family time with God. Have a great weekend.
