This year's Holiday Bible Club studied the Wordless Book. Those of us who grew up in the US as Christians grew up with this "book" but it hasn't been used so much here in England. It is such a great tool to use to share the gospel with kids. We averaged around 40 kids and only five were from our church. The rest of the kids came from the neighborhood. Our theme was "Code Breakers" and the code was gbrwg. Can you break the code????? Following are some shots from our time with the kids. Paul worked with grades 1-3 and I worked with grades 4-6. Notice the relay he came up with...the little boy is wearing Paul's motorcycle jacket!!
We studied a different color each day and so the leaders tried to wear those colors. Here's Paul and Chuck dressed for "black day".
At the end of the week we invited parents to come and see what the kids were learning and stay for a picnic. We were so pleased with how many came. We were able to sit around with them in the garden and chat about the week and invite them to come to church. A few did come the next day.
