Tea-time Church

An introduction to Tea-time Church

Worship

	The complete PowerPoint file for Tea-time church - Download Remember to download all the videos you wish to use and always keep them in the same folder as the PowerPoint file. If you wish to use your own musicians it is a simple matter to delete our video slides and insert the words versions using "Insert Slides from file ..." or "Reuse Slides" There are also complete Notes - Download
	I can do all things Available as a bible-bop video with words and music - Download - Sample The backing track is distributed using PRS Licence LE-0035170 . The words are by © John Hardwick and used with permission. Please do not pass it on outside the IDEAS scheme and declare its use on your CCLI report. We find that a bible-bop is a great way of moving from the games into the worship. Children prefer this to singing and this will draw them to the worship area. We suggest using it again after tea to draw people back to the worship area.

Craft

Each month we suggest a couple of crafts. One is a corporate activity to produce something to put up on the wall or in the church to show that children are present, active and part of the church. The other is individual for them to make something and take it home.

This month's corporate activity is to make a collage of crossing the Red Sea. We would suggest making a large version of the image provided and then get each child to draw themselves on small pieces of paper (or even small pieces of OHP film if you have some tucked away and the special pens) and then add their pictures to the collage asking them would they trust God to walk through the sea like that - Image

There is a corporate cooking activity on the ABC Jesus loves me page that looks fun. You use jelly, whipped topping and marshmellows to tell the story and then they can share the finished product (perhaps as part of the tea). There are also links to colouring sheets.

There is a craft of making a Moses that stretches out his arm and a template at Danielle's Place of Crafts and Activities on the Bible Themes Moses Page. (this is only available on the subscription part of the site).

Tea

We have found that sandwiches, crisps, sausage rolls, pizza, jelly and ice cream make a really good Sunday tea. The Notes suggest a number of "I wonder questions" to start conversations about the video and the story.

Response
