Advent 2 - Accepting

Tell the story
I am serializing the Christmas Story into very short segments and telling terrible jokes that are posted on our church Instagram stories and on the BridgeKIDS page on Facebook every day through this month.

You can watch and catch up with all the days so far on Facebook or join me today on Instagram to pick up where we are.

And, if your child has a seasonal joke they’d like to share I’d love that. Video them and send it to me and I’ll include it with my story.

This coming Sunday
The story this week is about Mary and the Angel and how she accepted the suprising message she was given. Accepting hard things is sometimes a bit tricky but Mary seemed okay with the hard thing she was being asked to do.

We’ll be colouring and playing a few games and hanging out together on Zoom. Come ready to tell us something funny that happened this week.

Let’s Pray
Jesus, you are Emanuel, God with us!
You are the Best Gift Ever!
Thank you for your amazing love for everything and everyone you have created.
Amen

Advent Bags are Coming!
Bags with the things you’ll need to take us to the other side of Christmas will be delivered today or tomorrow. There is an envelope that says NOW on it - you can open that NOW! Wait until the right dates to open the others but beware, some of them have small things inside so best make sure you are out of reach of babies and toddlers when you open them.

There is a very special something I am still waiting to be delivered - I’m hoping we’ll get it before Christmas! I’ll let you know when it’s ready for collection/delivery!

Last Week’s Big Challenge
Build an angel - you could make it out of anything, Lego, playdoh, junk, paper, cardboard, amazon boxes... whatever you have at hand.
Show us on Sunday if you’ve got yours made!
