Jesus is Risen!

We are coming to the end of our time in the Jerusalem Marketplace. Each one has enjoyed learning about different aspects of Jerusalem in the time of Jesus. Ask your children what they have enjoyed most about the last few weeks. ( I think quite a few will say sharing the lovely bread together!!)

Unfortunately the camera settings had been accidentally changed so not too many photos this week...sorry kids. :(

But here are some of the Hebrew letters that a number of Promiselanders enjoyed copying under the tutelage of Rabbi Matthew.

Our thanks to all the ladies who ran stalls in the marketplace for everyone to enjoy.




The marketplace was once again disrupted by Mary running around looking for Peter. She was in such an excited state, running around and jumping up and down, with a huge smile on her face. Eventually she found Peter hiding in a corner. "JESUS IS ALIVE" she shouted to Peter. Peter looked doubtful. He is ! Mary said. I've seen Him! Come Peter and see the empty tomb.
Later in our Tribe times we discussed how Mary must have felt. How thrilled, and excited. Wasn't it just wonderful that Jesus was alive! And what did that mean to us today! It was a great discussion.



Parents please remember we would like the children slightly earlier on Sunday 25th March as they will be taking part in the main service that day.

Also each year group will be having a special outing with their leaders on Sunday April 1st. Can you please return the indemnity forms that your child should have brought home last week.
