Boy's Brigade - what a great night we had

Monday night and 70 young people and parents gathered for a  time of fun and worship.

With a couple of songs we prepared ourselves for Holy Week. After a warm up song we reminded ourselves of Palm Sunday and the journey to the cross. Time to reflect on what we need to put right or let go of.  The physical action of hammering nails to the cross an expression of our hopes.

Then time to make an Easter card that reminds us we go from sadness to joy.

Then it was time for a competition to make a mummy which was declared a draw.

Great laughter before we touched on the reality of Jesus dying on a cross and our belief in the resurrection. A plug to join us on the Good Friday procession of witness 10.15 from Firth Park old library. All ending with a song, prayer and a gift of an Easter egg.

I don't know who enjoyed it more the parents, young people or me. I just had a wonderful time. It's  good news for our church life at Firth Park Methodist - The church on the roundabout.
