The house group materials for our Lent Study are available here.
Join us tomorrow (Wednesday 23rd February) from 10.30-12.30 for a feast of fun in St Thomas’ as we make thick shakes, fruit kebabs, crafts and enjoy a drama workshop and some games. Our theme is The Fruits of the Spirit! and we will finish with plenty of burgers and hotdogs for our lunch. There is no charge as we have had a grant from Together Liverpool
The Bishop of Liverpool has recorded a special message for the worship communities across the Diocese of Liverpool
Church Wigan’s Vision for 2021 is now available.
This will take place in St Thomas’ church at 7:30pm on 9th October and will be a great evening of sung worship. It will also provide an opportunity to learn a bit more about the projects which the Africa Fund supports. Tickets are reasonably priced at only £4 and are available by emailing Chris Wooff or phoning 01942 724207. They will also be on sale in church after some of our services. There will be an interval during which light refreshments will be served.
For several years we’ve enjoyed welcoming hundreds of families into church as our contribution to the Always Ashton Easter and Halloween trails. Unfortunately we can’t do that this year due the Coronavirus restrictions. Instead we hope this resource will help families to enjoy this time safely together. You’ll find sheets to colour, videos to watch, crafts to try, a maze to solve and a word search.
Easter is one of the most important celebrations in the Christian calendar. At Easter we celebrate Jesus’ resurrection. After His crucifixion, death, and burial, on Good Friday, Jesus rose from the grave. In doing so, He conquered death and redeemed us from sin if we believe in Him. This BBC video explains things in more detail.
Here are some ideas for crafts which you might like to try. If you complete any of the activities then please send in pictures to easter@stthomasstluke.org.uk and we will share them on our Facebook page. You might also want to put them in your window for other people to see.
If you have access to a printer then you might like to print off the colouring sheet and have a go at it.
Again if you have access to a printer then why not try this Easter word search?
Finally, please say this prayer with your family.
Dear God
Thank you for giving us such good gifts.
For our families who love us.
For yummy food and tasty drink.
For so many different beautiful animals.
For parks with tall trees and soft grass.
For birds that fly among the clouds.
For seas and streams that are fun to paddle in.
And thank you for your son Jesus.
We like to read about him in the bible.
He taught his disciples about you.
He healed people who were sick.
He walked on water,
And even died and came back to life.
Help us to remember all the things he did
And celebrate him on this special day.
Amen
