Thanks to some extremely generous Lego and Duplo donations from the village, the Lego  tables are fully operational (see photos of my grandchildren).
Barrowden church is open nearly every day from about 10.0am – about 4.30pm, and everyone is welcome young and old to build with Lego, colour and read or be read to, in a peaceful and spiritual place.  So bring your children, grandchildren and yourself.  Pin up your artwork on the notice board if you want to.

Next Sunday we have the candles ready for our Family Service at 11.00am, which is very inclusive and friendly.  There is an opportunity in the service to light a candle for someone you love.

 

if you as a parent or grandparent feel that your young offspring should have a chance to know some traditional stories from the Bible but don’t know how to approach this, we have a nice selection of books in Barrowden Church (see photo).  The church is a peaceful place to read to children (or yourself), and there are associated colouring pictures to take home or pin up on the notice board.  You can also have a good play with the Lego and Duplo.  The church is generally open everyday 10am- 4pm.
