Mid-week Joy
Welcome to our mid-week news from around the parish and beyond. Sunday Worship will be here at the weekend as usual, but in the meantime here are a few bits and pieces for you to enjoy.
Worship for all Generations continues each Thursday on our facebook page. To see this week's service please click on the following link - Leesfield Parish
This week is the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, when we would usually join with our fellow Christians for a Churches Together in Lees and District joint service. We're unable to have a service this year, but the following link will lead to resources for prayer and worship at home - Week of prayer for christian unity 2021
Here's something I missed off before Christmas. The usual Beaver Scout Christmas Sleepover couldn't happen this year, so Kingsley packed up everything they needed to have a sleepover at home in boxes for everybody to enjoy. Below is a small selection of photos, and a few words from Kingsley about this remarkable event.
If the Beaver Scouts cannot go on Christmas Sleepover ... then let Christmas Sleepover go to the Beaver Scouts
What a fabulous weekend! a 40 strong Christmas Sleepover made up of Beaver Scouts, Cub Scouts, 1 Scout & a lot of siblings from both Leesfield & St Edwards Scout Groups
What did we learn ......
Beaver Scouts will eat the chocolate puddings for Sunday's on-line game as a midnight snack,
Beaver Scouts will spread peanut butter & birdseed with a spoon, then lick the spoon,
Some mums can burn microwave popcorn
Beaver Scouts can stay awake REALLY late, even on home Sleepovers
Sleeping in a bedsheet igloo in the lounge makes for a very lazy Sunday morning
Well done everyone & thank you all for a fantastic weekend... it seems The Grinch cannot steal Sleepover after all.
Finally, here's a little clip from the BBC, featuring a very cute polar bear.
