Our Children and Families work is continuing with benefice Messy Church events being held in West and East Coker village halls. These are proving to be very popular, with families gathering for craft and worship rounded off with a tasty hot meal. A great way to connect with the wider communities across our benefice.
We have re - commenced our after school club ‘Seekers’ at West Coker school, and continue to be involved in the life of our schools with assemblies and special events in church.
If you feel a calling to be involved in our children and families work please contact our children and families work leader Deborah Wootton childrensworkleader.cokerridge@gmail.com or our benefice office 01935 862429.

Our recent Messy Church event was a great success, using the theme of 'God's Amazing Love' and taking a little inspiration from Valentine's Day we made cards, booklets, treasure chests, and colouring sheets. Following our recent decision to make our crafts more intentional, everything had either a bible verse or wording which spoke of God's love for us, and our time of worship explored what we might expect to see on God's 'Valentine's Card to our World' and it didn't matter that the heart turned into a tomato for the 'Apple of God's Eye' we all got the message, we're loved and are precious beyond price to God.

There were games for those children - and grown ups who like a change from craft, and the whole afternoon was rounded off with sausage, mash and beans, and jelly and ice cream with red heart shaped biscuits.
A huge thank you to everyone who helped make this a great, and delicious success!
Our next Messy Church is on Saturday 4th April in West Coker's Commemoration Hall 4 - 6pm.
