Best wishes for 2021.
Well we had such a lovely morning.
We finished off the nativity story, saw a magic trick by the Vicar and Santa came to visit.
A morning full of smiles, song and most important of all sharing the love of Jesus. 😍

The Vicar joined us today we talked about why advent is observed.
Also how it is celebrated around the world.
We talked about Hope(the first candle on the wreath) how we always have a light shinning for us, however dim it might seem at times it's always lit.

Share Light not Darkness
At St Catherine's Sunday School, we like to share light not darkness.
In our last session we had a story about a little girl who was frightened, she was reminded that we always have a light shining for us.
''The Lord is my light and the one who saves me. I'm not afraid of anyone.' Psalm 27 verse 1.

Peter & John heal a lame man.
Today we looked at Peter and John healing the lame man.
Power cuts had caused problems for some of our members and they couldn't join us.
We had a message from Dewi to say remembered the story and he wanted to say .....
"Peter and John healing the lame man was the same as the vicar using the magic oil and Jesus's power to heal me when my legs wouldn't work."
We shared this with the rest of the group.
How wonderful that Dewi had such faith and trust in the Lord, and that this has stayed with him for many years.

Thy Kingdom Come
I was honored to have been asked to lead last night's session.😊 Keeping the flag flying for our little band.
I shared my through and prayers for a new vision, on how we can move forward after lockdown.
The fact that we have carried on with Sunday School during lockdown proves that the church is more than just a building.
Let's pray that we can continue to grow and share Jesus love together, through which ever means, be it virtually or in person. 🙏🙏
Thank you so every one for your support and encouragement.

The Good Samaritan
Today in Sunday School we read about the "Good Samaritan." All the years that I have heard this story, today this story had more meaning and more emotion than I have ever felt reading it before.
There are so many "Good Samaritans" out in the world today, foing what God wants them to do.
Love Thy Neighbour, In such a time as this, where our hands have to be washed so many times due to this terrible virus, and it's difficult to reach out and touch some one.
Thousands of these wonderful key workers use their hands to heal the sick, hold someone's hands whilst they are dying and even to use their hands to pray, while their loved ones are not able to be with them.
To me this is the true meaning of "The Good Samaritan."
Whenever I hear this story again, it will always remind me of the year 2020, when so many people all the wonderful key workers. NHS staff, Carers,Teaching staff, Food bank workers, refuge collectors, post men and women. Many more, became The Good Samaritans.
Remember although we may not be able to use our hands in person, there are plenty of other easy we can help, may be a phone call or a virtual meeting or even just a smile to someone else may brighten their day.
We also had Gary join us today for some worship songs. 🎤🎶
Here are some helping hands made by the children.🤲🙏
Such a lovely meeting this morning. 🙏

Poem
How the Virus Stole Easter
By Kristi Bothur
With a nod to Dr. Seuss 😊
Twas late in ‘19 when the virus began
Bringing chaos and fear to all people, each land.
People were sick, hospitals full,
Doctors overwhelmed, no one in school.
As winter gave way to the promise of spring,
The virus raged on, touching peasant and king.
People hid in their homes from the enemy unseen.
They YouTubed and Zoomed, social-distanced, and cleaned.
April approached and churches were closed.
“There won’t be an Easter,” the world supposed.
“There won’t be church services, and egg hunts are out.
No reason for new dresses when we can’t go about.”
Holy Week started, as bleak as the rest.
The world was focused on masks and on tests.
“Easter can’t happen this year,” it proclaimed.
“Online and at home, it just won’t be the same.”
Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, the days came and went.
The virus pressed on; it just would not relent.
The world woke Sunday and nothing had changed.
The virus still menaced, the people, estranged.
“Pooh pooh to the saints,” the world was grumbling.
“They’re finding out now that no Easter is coming.
“They’re just waking up! We know just what they’ll do!
Their mouths will hang open a minute or two,
And then all the saints will all cry boo-hoo.
“That noise,” said the world, “will be something to hear.”
So it paused and the world put a hand to its ear.
And it did hear a sound coming through all the skies.
It started down low, then it started to rise.
But the sound wasn’t depressed.
Why, this sound was triumphant!
It couldn’t be so!
But it grew with abundance!
The world stared around, popping its eyes.
Then it shook! What it saw was a shocking surprise!
Every saint in every nation, the tall and the small,
Was celebrating Jesus in spite of it all!
It hadn’t stopped Easter from coming! It came!
Somehow or other, it came just the same!
And the world with its life quite stuck in quarantine
Stood puzzling and puzzling.
“Just how can it be?”
“It came without bonnets, it came without bunnies,
It came without egg hunts, cantatas, or money.”
Then the world thought of something it hadn’t before.
“Maybe Easter,” it thought, “doesn’t come from a store.
Maybe Easter, perhaps, means a little bit more.”
And what happened then?
Well....the story’s not done.
What will YOU do?
Will you share with that one
Or two or more people needing hope in this night?
Will you share the source of your life in this fight?
The churches are empty - but so is the tomb,
And Jesus is victor over death, doom, and gloom.
So this year at Easter, let this be our prayer,
As the virus still rages all around, everywhere.
May the world see hope when it looks at God’s people.
May the world see the church is not a building or steeple.
May the world find Faith in Jesus’ death and resurrection,
May the world find Joy in a time of dejection.
May 2020 be known as the year of survival,
But not only that -
Let it start a revival.

It's Palm Sunday tomorrow,
We may not be able to meet in person, but here are few resources you could use to help learn about Palm Sunday. 🌿

A lovely session learning about St Paul.
We learnt how he went from someone persecuted the Lord to one of his greatest disciples following his conversion on the road to Damascas.
Ananais played a part in this too, we learnt this from a script which we will be performing in our end of term family service on July 7th.

After Sunday School today we went to the church for communion. The Vicar had some words of advice for us. Use your ears to listen and learn. He had some handy ears to demonstrate his message. 😁👂👂🙏
