Memories of Sunday School
St. John's group
Covered in glue and glitter,
Colouring in, sharing crayons,
Making things, making friends,
Lovely teachers (especially Mrs Day).
Feeling proud and a bit nervous bringing our work into church,
Waving flames of silver foil for Pentecost,
Giving flowers to our mothers on Mothers’ Day,
Crosses on Palm Sunday.
Making a last supper with Ribena and bread,
Flocks of angels, troops of shepherds in the Nativity play,
Praying and singing together,
Stories and parables,
Wanting to be kind like Jesus was.
Feeling grown up when you move into an older group,
Being a bit sad when you outgrow the Nativity play,
But you’re never too old for some glue and glitter.
