It might be a Bank Holiday weekend – but that doesn’t stop Messy Church!
We seek to provide a space where the whole family can spend quality time together to share in Fun, Faith and Food, with craft activities, stories, songs and a shared meal together to finish.
We hope that you can join us at St Catherine’s this Saturday (May 4th) at 3:30pm. Bring a friend !
We’re excited to announce that the 2019 Holiday Club will be called ‘Backpackers’.
With a travel theme, there’s plenty of exploring, fun and games, making, songs, drama and more, as the children journey through European cities.
At Backpackers, children will travel with Jesus as he arrives in Jerusalem and explore the events of his last week on earth through the awesome accounts from the Gospel of Matthew. There’ll be the normal mixture of Fun, Games, Craft, Bible Stories and Songs, plus the chance to perform Drama and Song.
Backpackers will take place from Monday 12th August to Friday 16th, from 10am to 12noon. These is also an opening ‘preview’ service for all the family on Sunday 11th August at 10:30am.
The cost is £10 for the week, this is to cover refreshments and materials (a reduction to £5 for additional children in the same family).

The Easter School holidays are about to start. But what is Easter all about?
We know it’s more than just chocolate and bunnies, but why do Christians consider Easter far more important than Christmas?

We hope to see you at St Catherine’s this Saturday (April 6th) at 3:30pm.
