Sunday Wonder
Sunday Wonder happens during the first part of our 10 am Parish Eucharist on the 1st Sunday of the month at All Saints Church and the 4th Sunday of the month at SsPhilip and James Church.
Sunday Wonder helps children to know God, not just know about God.
Stories that spark wonder and imagination and creative play
Sunday Wonder meets as part of the 10am service at All Saints Church on the 1st Sunday of the month and at Ss Philip & James Church on the 4th Sunday. Children (aged approximately 3 to 11 years old) gather at the start of the service in the Church and are then led through to the church hall for our Sunday Wonder session.
Godly Play is a very special way of sharing the Bible stories and teachings of the church. We use these beautiful resources to help tell the story of the day in a visual and tactile way, encouraging children to step into the Bible and the story for themselves. Story time is held in the church hall, with 2 of our registered Children’s Team. After the story, the children also enjoy colouring, making a craft, or reading more relating to the story that they’ve heard.
Our room is setup with all the Godly Play materials surrounding the children in an organised way so that they can find any of the story materials to revisit a story at any time (image shown is the ‘sacred stories shelf’). We always have a wide variety of art and craft materials available to the children to choose what they would like to do in response to the story.
If you have any questions or comments we’d love to hear from you – please contact our team via the Parish Office.
