A Trip in Time - Holiday Programme

For the past week I have had the joy of helping run a holiday programme for primary aged children at Riverbend Bible Church. It was great having the opportunity to share Christ with so many children.

One of the things I learnt more about was how well delegation can work and the how wonderful it is to work in a team.

On the first day we had six children and on the second God multiplied that by 6 and we had 36 children.

 Each day we had games, morning tea (I was thankful to have Angie organise and look after this for me so I did not have to think about it all week), teaching time (which included songs, a Bible lesson, memory verse activity and a short segment called trip in time), activity (each day was different - craft, skit, archery/flying fox, field game), and a review game.

On the last day we had a BBQ and prize giving which the families were invited to. We were encouraged to have some come along and are excited to see what God will do now that the relationships have been started with people in the community.

The "Trip in Time" was about going back in time to see what has happened in the world, establishing the Bible as truth.
We started with the beginning and then went through the fall, flood, giving of law and life of Christ. In the "Trip in Time" segments we looked at some interesting things in history that verified what the Bible taught.
