 Every year we focus on the Cross and what it means for us.

This year is no exception.  I've included a few simple cross 

crafts using, hopefully, things you can find at home!

 Palm Sunday Messy Service

 

 

 It wouldn't be a Messy Service without 

crafts and biscuits, so ....

Below are pictures of the crafts 

AND the Messy Biscuit recipe!

 

 

 During the service we are looking at celebrations.  

The picture represents the celebration for the arrival of a

much loved Granny not seen for a few years!

The Fireworks are for  New Year Celebrations (new beginnings)

The Wine glass to to remember the Passover celebrations.

We are celebrating Palm Sunday when Jesus arrived in 

Jerusalem, bringing us a new beginning and freedom from sin.

 Biscuit recipe:

250g softened butter; 140g caster sugar; 

1 egg yolk; 2tsp vanilla extract; 300g plain flour

Mix together the butter and caster sugar in a large mixing bowl 

(It's best to do this with a wooden spoon) 

Next add the egg yolk and vanilla extract and beat to combine.

Sieve the flour as you  stir it into the mixture until well combined.  

 - you may need to use your hands for this bit!!!

Bake at 180 degrees (fan) for about 20 minutes.

This will make about 30-35 biscuits!!!
