The Blue Bucket


Yesterdays assembly seemed to go down well. The children were very inventive when asked "what can a bucket be used for?" ..... You can tell we live in a rural area as a couple of the responses were ..."you can use it to carry coal" ..."and you can use it to milk a cow!"

I used the bucket as a link to Jairus's sick daughter ( sick bucket ...very creative I hear you cry!)

The story of Jairus's daughter is very powerful , particulary the part when Jesus says to Jairus "Don't be afraid , just believe"

Off to coffee morning this morning and then I must get my head down and write a sermon ...the clock is ticking ....
