Holiday Club (5)

The finale!

A party spirit pervaded the day and the children and team all loved it all. (Except, perhaps, for the cleaning up which the team then have to do!)

John came in to a rapturous round of applause. Dressed in his kilt, with a kangaroo tied round his waist in place of a sporran, he did his whole big didgeridoo Kangaroo song, and the excited delight of the children just about had the roof coming off.

They were all in party mode after that.

Helen spoke to them all about the parable Jesus told - the man who'd prepared a feast and then people declined the invitation: excuses, other things they had to do. She read the bit from the Bible and made it come alive.

She had some invites to the party scattered through the building, which the children finally found, and then she picked up on the gracious invitation of the gospel, and spelled it out for the children.

Simple, clear, and powerful.

A good way to end a wonderful week. May the Lord use it all for his glory.
