Welcome Home
Diocesan Children’s Festival
9th June 2007-06-19 Aylesford Priory
14 adults and children from St. Mary’s, Leigh attended the festival on a wonderful sunny day at the Priory.
The day began at 10am with an act of worship and official opening by the Bishop of Tonbridge. The children were then invited to join in the activities which included puppets, arts & crafts, sports, prayer labyrinth, music workshop, drama, mini gym, bouncy castle and much more besides. There was a final act of worship and closing ceremony at 3.30pm before we all went home exhausted.
What a wonderful opportunity for Christians from all walks of life in the diocese to come together for fun, fellowship and to give thanks to God in such beautiful surroundings. Some of you may remember that we held our Parish Weekend there a couple of years ago.
Many thanks to Rochester Board of Education for putting this event on, especially Tiffany Allen.
