You are invited to share worship and crafts at the Good Friday Workshop on April 7th at St John’s Church, Mortimer. We will gather from 9.45am to sing Easter
hymns/songs and walk with Jesus through the Stations of the Cross. After refreshments, you may choose to create an Easter garden, make a candle, decorate a biscuit, fill an Easter basket and more. The workshop will finish at 12 noon. Booking your place helps the team to prepare sufficient crafts and materials.
You can book places by:
• telephoning the Benefice Office on 0118 9333704 with your child’s name,
age, emergency contact numbers and any additional needs
• emailing admin@mortimerbenefice.co.uk with your child’s name, age,
emergency contact numbers and any additional needs
• dropping your form into the Benefice Office
A donation of £3.00 per child is invited for materials and this may be brought on the day. Under-fives may need help from their own parent or carer as crafts are designed for 5-11s. If you, or older teenagers, are able to assist with craft activities or refreshments during the workshop, the team would be very pleased to have your/their help.
