METHODIST CHURCH: Kathryn welcomed everyone to all-age worship on Sunday morning in the Sunday schoolroom, and also read from Genesis about the Creation. Worship focused on creation and the Junior Church made a butterfly picture beginning from a caterpillar, and also pictures of bees, to lead into bible verses from the New Testament.

Tania told the congregation about the recent Messy Church and what the children had learned. The lit pumpkins displayed a cross and an anchor, and the Methodist Church’s remembrance of the Universal Church on All Hallow’s Day/All Saints’ Day was discussed. Chosen hymns were enjoyed, and Mary closed with prayers. There will be all-age worship again on Sunday led by Chris Smith, with community hymn singing from10.40am.
