Messy Church by Lucy Moore

Sub-titled “Fresh ideas for building a Christ-centred community”, "Messy Church" aims to create the opportunity for people to have fun together and enjoy the experience of being part of the extended church family through a range of worship, storytelling, craft activities and simple homemade meals.

Based on two-hour sessions for people of all ages, for each session the book includes: Bible reference and background, recipes for the meal, ten theme-related craft activities with suggested 'talk about' ideas, and an outline for the concluding act of worship. Session themes include: God's family: our family; Jesus' 'I am' sayings; Messy Christmas; New life; and, Bible landscapes.
