Faith At Home

From time to time special resources will be made available to specifically help you nurture faith in your home. Often these will coincide with special events/seasons in the church year. Please make use of them!

Bible Activity Kits

Now available for borrowing from the church library.

Our Bible Activity Kits usually contain a children’s Bible story book and a game or some toys or a DVD that support the story and “Faith 5” bookmarks. They also have laminated instructions containing questions about the story, prayer points and suggested activities to do at home.

We hope that your children will really enjoy taking these kits home. We also hope that these kits can be a great tool for parents as you have the privilege of introducing your children to God’s love for them. Your whole family can learn together and share your spiritual learning journey.

Click on the images below for some examples of the Bible Activity Kit instruction pages.
