The Bible: Half Term Activities

This week the object of faith in the Year of Faith blog is the Bible.  As it is Half term we will be including activities (video, colouring and jigsaws) linked to Bible stories and characters.  Today we start with a jigsaw of St Peter our patron saint, a song to learn the books of the bible and a writing activity for our younger readers (adults please pass on to young people you know - we are as interested in children and teenagers stories).  

StPetersKeys jigsaw puzzle
St Peter's Keys Jigsaw
On Thursday we celebrate the feast of All Saints.   
Over the summer people have sent in photos of where they have taken St Peter's keys, we have more to share in November.  If you have any more to add from half term day trips or holidays please let us know using the contact form.
See end of post for a 9 piece jigsaw or click the links for an on-line 25 piece jigsaw or 49 piece jigsaw.

An Old and New Testament Song
Here is a song to help you learn the Old and New Testament books in a Catholic Bible.  Any budding musicians like to write a new song, or maybe a mnemonic (memory aid) for some or all of the books.  For instance, remembering to whom St Paul wrote his letters.
Half Term Tales If any of the younger members of our parish would like to write about how they follow Jesus during this half term then we'd like to hear what you have been doing, we can share your news on the blog or at the end of Children's Liturgy. Please bring your news to Children's Liturgy or get in touch using the contact page.
