For 2015 we are running our fun activity session Messy Michaels at Gillas Lane Primary School. This is a chance for us to take church into the community, singing songs, doing crafts and teaching the children bible stories.
At our first one this week we looked at the story of creation from Genesis chapter 1 and made some church windows depicting the 7 days of creation – I think my favourite is the children’s imagining of what God did when he rested! (If you look closely you’ll see that it includes playing football, riding a bike and playing on a computer!)
-
- On the first day God created light and dark.
-
- On the second day God created the sea and the sky.
-
- On the third day God caused plants to grow on the earth and fill it.
-
- On the fourth day God created the Sun, Moon and Stars.
-
- On the fifth day God created the living creatures of the sea and the birds of the air.
-
- On the sixth day God created wild animals of every kind and human beings in his own image.
-
- On the seventh day, God rested.
