This week was the last on our Encounters with Jesus series, and we looked at the story of the men walking with Jesus on the road to Emmaus. They had no idea who they were walking with until he broke bread with them – at that point they remembered the last supper, and realised who had…
We did some detective work to find information about the Sadducees and Pharisees. A group of people who encountered Jesus on many occasions and were not impressed with what he had to say. We heard the story of the occasion when they asked him what they thought would be a trick question with a yes…

This week we looked at Jesus’s encounter with Martha and Mary. We started playing a game of ‘Would you Rather…?’ which included the question, ‘Would you rather clean the whole house or listen to stories?’ Everyone in the room – including the adults – chose stories over cleaning! But when we thought about what we’d do if…
