Junior Church
Luke Street: The House Builders
We’ve arrived at the end of our Luke Street journey now and learned a great deal about Jesus as we travelled the road with him. There have been light bulb moments for all of us as we talked together about what Jesus is like and who he is, and we’ve recorded some of them on our Luke Street display at the back of church - do have a look. Some of your work might be there. We couldn’t finish this series without thinking about the best way to build a house, so on Sunday we’ll be looking at a parable Jesus told about two house builders - you may need to bring an umbrella and wellies!
All welcome from 3 years to 16 years.
