We’re half-way through our season of All Age Praise and Worship at Time for God, during which we looked at Gifts, Good News and all manner of things. We had some quirky songs to begin – Have you heard the Raindrops? (this chorus goes nicely to the Rupert the Bear song), followed by Christ’s Love is the Best Love (Fred Flinstone). Great Fun!
We looked at Hannah’s yearning for a child in 1 Samuel 1, whereupon the children made presents out of Play Doh and decided to whom they would give them in the hall (Well they had to give them away there and then since Play Doh doesn’t travel well on a warm day!), which was followed by a rendition of “I am a new Creation” and read Mary’s song of praise from Luke 1. We looked at both
Finally we sang Mary’s song “Tell out my soul” and finished up with “He’s got the whole wide world”. The adults took part in the Play Doh creations – since they were longing to “have a go” and an imaginative time was had by all. So with Valerie at the piano and my faithful band of stewards on hand, the whole morning went with a swing.
And so to next week … Just watch this space!
