Christmas Card Competition
Would you like to draw, colour or paint a picture of a Christmas scene that we can use as the card that goes to all the houses in this parish wishing everyone one a Happy Christmas? This is open to any child of primary school age (Bere Alston school will be taking part).
It should be on a sheet of white A5 paper and it can be about anything to do with the Christmas story – angels, Mary & Joseph, baby Jesus, shepherds, wise men, or something you think is important about Christmas.
It needs to be back in school or delivered to the Rectory, The Down, Bere Alston by Monday 17th November, with your name and age on the back of the picture. We will put the name of the person who made the picture on every card and make sure you have some for yourself as well.
If you have any questions, please let me know. I look forward to seeing your picture.
Christmas Trees in HT
18th Annual Christmas Tree Decorating Competition is open to all groups in the area to supply and decorate a tree in Holy Trinity Church for the Christmas season. We start on Monday 15th December, but you need to book your place. For more information contact me on vicar@tamc.church.
Youth 2 Youth
The youth workers are now starting to build up the music side of Y2Y. In the first phase they will get recording equipment in to the Hut so young people can create and edit their own music or downloads and allow their creative side to flourish. Then it will move on to having musicians come in to teach the YP to play different instruments. Watch this space.
Nick, Chair.
