It Club @ Easter @ Bristo!!

Hello everyone, :-)

Matt here again, with the latest on It Club and Encounter gatherings over Easter.

While tomorrow there will be no It Club, due to the invitation for everyone of all ages to join in a Good Friday meditation (see below,) Easter Monday brings with it an opportunity to gather for

"an afternoon of Easter Celebrations through

dance, song and creative fun,

and a meal"

This will take place from 3 - 6 pm on Easter Monday (Monday 13th April)

There will be practices for musicians and dancers at 2pm beforehand on the day. Please let your parents know if you need to be here early! (if you want to use the building on another day, then please arrange this with myself for the sake of health and safety, even if you do have access to a set of keys! Thanks!)

The meal will be a 'bring and share' affair.
Can I ask all the girls to bring something savoury for the main course and for the boys and the coachs to bring sweets! I'll bring the drinks.

One final word for anyone confused as to why we would be celebrating Easter on the Monday when this is more of a Bank Holiday than a faith based one, allow me to explain:

At It Club, we really are a mixed bunch of different ages, interests and backgrounds, churched and unchurched, coming together to share life and to learn what it means to be a Christian community.

Those kids who don't go to Church might only get one chance to celebrate the life changing events of Easter this year. So rather than presenting them with just Good Friday or Easter morning, with either the Cross or resurrection, we thought it good to celebrate the whole of Easter, the sorrows and the joys on one day. We hope that in the Lord, it will be both a fruitful and enjoyable, meaningful time.

Have a great Easter,

God bless,

M@
