Summer Fun at St. Paul's

At St. Paul’s Bloor Street we have been having fun this summer exploring some of Jesus’ parables with our children. We love the relaxed summer pace and combine Bible teaching with art activities lead by Linda Deramaix, an arts educator from our community. The kids love the hands on activities and creating something cool. For the parable of the sower the children created a little container with different types of soil (rocky, weedy, hard and good soil) with seeds sprinkled on top.

Many families are away in the summer but we welcome others as visitors and are so glad when they have a great experience in Children’s Ministry. In August we move on to ‘God’s Family in Action’ based on the book of Acts. Our goal is to make sure children matter every Sunday all year. Popcorn for snack – what could be better?
