St Georges Day Celebration

We have had a very busy but very worth while day down at MediaCityUK in Manchester, helping the Scouts celebrate St Georges Day.  Seven different groups have been on a rota doing a number of different activities throughout the day.  We were running the faith activity, the theme I decided to go with was trusting God and I told them stories from the Old Testament about people who trusted God like Noah and Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.  I also talked about the Bible and showed them the Action Bible, Minecraft Bible as well as the Lego Bible.  Susie the puppet (Martha) also helped out by asking what was in the Bible which led me into talking about it and telling the Adam and Eve story.  With some of the groups we also managed to sing Great Big God (time ran out on some).  Our prayer is that some seeds have been sown today into the lives of the youngsters we have seen.
