Family Advent Preparation

Looking back and looking forward.

Each week on Thursday we'll offer colouring and activities linked to the Gospel reading as a follow up and a link to Wednesday Word which gives you the reading for the next Sunday 2nd December.

There will also be stickers and bible verses to look up during the week to help create your own Jesse Tree (see below).

Jesse Tree
This year we will be giving out a book with stickers and pictures for families to create their own Jesse tree.  
A short video Scroll down to hear a busy mum talking about how she has used the Jesse tree with her children.  She thought it was good because it helped her and the children learn more about the Bible, it was good because the bible verses were short.  She also thought it was good for the children to talk about the pictures and in their tree the children also made their own pictures.
