Ministering to children & their families:
Holiday Clubs

Even smaller churches, which may not have the person-power to sustain regular children's work, can get involved in one-off opportunities created by holiday clubs and other one day events.

Holiday ClubsDates in the Church calendar can be used for some events as a chance to demonstrate why certain days have a Christian significance.

Some churches find that a midweek club attracts large numbers of children, who for various reasons may not be able to come into Church on a Sunday. There are lots of resources available for this type of activity and doesn't even need to be as frequent as weekly to be effective.

Pictures and Holiday Club News >>

The 2006 holiday club resource from Scripture union is called Pyramid Rock exploring the ever-popular story of Joseph.

Borrow it from our resource library to check it out.

Holiday Clubs

Also a new resource available from the library is Streetlevel, another SU publication which aims to resource low-key, low tech, events which may happen mid-week, aimed at those who have no church background to help them catch a sight of Jesus.

Also available and popular for mid-week work are Jaffa books 1, 2 and 3. Australian in origin and well thought through and easy to use.
