The nights are drawing in and here at Messy Church its time to party with our fun celebration of light in the darkness on Sunday 26th October, 4pm to 6pm.

 

We'll start with some fun craft activities, followed by stories and songs, all finishing with a delicious family meal. 

 

Children are welcome to come in fancy dress— super-heroes or super-heroines or something light-related (Please no scary costumes because we’re celebrating light and good things not darkness!).

Story-telling extravaganza with Bob Hartman

St Nicolas Messy Church in partnership with the Sycamore Tree is delighted to be hosting author and story-teller Bob Hartman for a special event on Sunday 28 September.  As an extension of our normal Messy Church Bob Hartman will be joining us for a story-telling extravaganza which will be especially suitable for school age children but is open to all.

Our Messy Church session will start at an earlier time of 3pm starting with an hour of messy craft activities for children and parents to enjoy together. At 4pm we will put our hands and voices to good use with some action songs and then we'll hand over to Bob Hartman for some wonderful, exciting and entertaining stories. At 5pm there will be a Messy Church barbecue with plenty of yummy food for us to enjoy together.

Fruitful May

Spring has sprung and May is all about fruitfulness. Come along to Messy Church on Sunday 25 May (4pm) for a fun-filled session focused on fruit... but not any old fruit!
There will be the usual mixture of activities for all-ages, poppy-planting in the churchyard to mark the centenary of the World War One, a game to play altogether, music and story-time all followed by a delicious meal... I can almost hear the sausages sizzling!
Do join us!

Mothers and others

Only a few days until Messy Church, and this month we will be celebrating those within our own families and wider community who bring us up or nurture us. We’ll be exploring the life of Jesus' mother and seeing how God works through ordinary people.

Come and join us for a mixture of craft activities, stories and songs, and finishing with a delicious family meal!

Whether you are a regular at Messy Church or thinking of joining us for the first time, we hope to see you on Sunday 23rd March, 4-6pm.
