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. There are also complete Notes - Download
	Who, who, who, do you put you trust in 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.

A great action song to keep the pace moving after the bible-bop
	A prayer can be found in the main PowerPoint and Notes files. Our aim over the 3 years is to gradually move to more and more interactive prayers to encourage children to pray themselves - Download
	The video we focus on today is taken from the Prince of Egypt which is a beautifully produced animated film based on the life of Moses - Sample At this point you could switch your projector or TV to DVD and show the film (already cued up) or alternatively you could copy the part of the film to your hard disk using software such as IMtoo DVD Ripper.
	A good alternative for young children this week would be the story part of Moses from Henry Handpuppet - Sample It is available from TaylorMation

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 freeze. Transfer the image onto a large sheet of paper and get the children to draw a basket, write their name on it, colour it and then stick it on the large sheet as a symbol that they are willing to put their trust in God.

A higher quality version of the image can be Downloaded

The individual craft activity is to make a basket.

There are suggestions on Danielle's Place and DLTK along with templates that can be downloaded and used.

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

	We suggest calling everyone back to the worship space by repeating the bible-bop - Download - Sample
