Sunday School News
We are planning a special session for children on September 12th when a treasure hunt will be all the go. However we need some specific items, asking if you could supply:
* some water-worn stones * some (chook) feathers * a sign post * some seeds
We will be looking at the Mary Jones and her Bible story – which might explain the above.
The children enjoyed making - and eating! - the Passover wraps last Sunday. And great thanks go to those who support our ministry so generously; it does not go unnoticed.
And in the light of numbers increasing, there will be a second group formed from 29th August, so that older children can have a group for themselves.

ABM Lamingtons - Your orders may be collected from the hall at any time after 2 p.m. on Friday afternoon August 27 . For those not able to collect them earlier, they will be available on Sunday morning 28 August.
Thank you all for your support for ABM.
