Spent yesterday evening at the church for the concluding holiday club family evening. Throughout the week, children from around the area were invited to the church in the mornings to learn about Jesus Christ and have fun, sometimes at the same time. This was an opportunity for the parents of the children to come along and see what their children had been doing at the club.

Seeing as I was working during the week, I also only attended the evening meeting, so in a way I got a parents’ eye view of the evening.

From the large amounts of cheering and laughter, it would seem the children had a great week, playing games, making things, and learning how Simon Peter encountered Jesus in the bible. For some this may have been their first glimpse at a bible, for others they’d seen it all before. Yet, the gospel of Jesus Christ was for all of them, and their parents, and it was encouraging to hear them reciting well-known verses from the bible.

Who knows what seeds have been sown and where they’ve landed? May God water them abundantly.
