Snot and Sniff take over the Starship!

Today is our last day which is a bit sad because we've been having so much fun. At the beginning it looked like Snot and Sniff were going to take over the Starship Miracle Seeker from the Captain and No. 1! Alexander told them the Captain and No. 1 had to pass an MOT, and they pretended they had failed it! Snot and Sniff even beamed up No. 1's Mummy! It was very nice meeting her although No. 1 seemed a bit embarrassed, especially when her Mummy asked for a hug.. Snot and Sniff took charge for a little while but the Captain was too clever and got her Starship back from them.

Alexander the computer was having some technical problems today, but we didn't mind in the end because the music crew just did more songs with us. They asked the boys and girls what they would like to sing and they said Fandabidozzie - that's been the favourite song for years!

Today we heard about when Jesus rose from the dead, which was truly amazing! He is alive today and is still with us. We learned a memory verse this week too - I just about know it off by heart now. It is "For God loved the world so much that He gave His only son. God gave His Son so that whoever believes in Him may not be lost, but have eternal life." John 3: 16

We've had lots of fun all week but the most important thing is that we've learned about Jesus' life, the things He did and why He came (which is what that Bible verse tells us.)

At the very end some of the parents of the boys and girls had arrived, so we all faced the back - where they were standing - and sang "I believe in Jesus" for them. They really liked it! Don't forget our Open Evening tonight - we hope you can come so we can show you the fun things we've done and tell you about what we've learned!

An amazing miracle!

Today started off quite sad because Sniff and Snot's pet Gloopy died. They gave him Comet Cola and he pinged so much he banged his head. Alexander (the Computer) said he had expired. But then something really exciting happened later because we had a visit from a man called Lazarus. Jesus had raised him from the dead even after 4 days in his tomb when he was a bit smelly.

Alexander has got over his computer virus now and was much better today. He even sent the Captain and Number 1 pictures of himself, he seems to have become quite fond of them. I think he likes me too although he hasn't sent me a picture.

Aerobics was silly again today because the Captain, No 1, Snot and Sniff did it. We didn't know what they were doing, I don't think they knew either! Snot and Sniff were very naughty because they froze the lieutenants, Captain and No 1 and put horrible lollies in their mouths. They had blue tongues for the rest of the morning! They tickled them and tried to make them giggle to see if they were properly frozen. They haven't tried to freeze me yet which is very good!

Tomorrow is our last day of Holiday Club and we are having an Open Evening when you can come and see what we've been getting up to all week. Please come if you can, it'll be lots of fun!

Alien Day






I had a sleepover on Starship Miracle Seeker last night.I got chatting to the computer.He told me his name is Alexander.He knows lots of facts about just about everything. He wasn't feeling too well today, he had a computer virus and kept sneezing. The Aliens - Snot and Sniff were feeling a bit off colour too. It was probably all the Comet Cola they drank yesterday,it certainly made them ping a lot!

I was a bit worried when the team and children first arrived as most of them looked very odd! But it turned out it was Alien Day and they were all being Aliens! Snot and Sniff really liked the look of them all. I was asked to judge who were the best Aliens -it was a very hard decision to make as they were all fabulous!

We had a visit from a strange looking character called Bath Vapour today - he did aerobics with us which was funny and he also helped us to pray. We wrote prayer requests on stickers which we put on helium balloons.

We're learning some great songs this week -although everyone still likes to sing Fandabidozzie! We learned a new song today called 'I believe In Jesus' -all the boys and girls shouted "I believe in Jesus!" when it came up in the song - it sounded great!

We're learning about Jesus the Miracle Maker and today's story was about lady who had been ill for 12 years. She got healed by just touching the hem of Jesus coat! It is a brilliant story. Dr Swotty beamed her up so she could tell us more about it which was very interesting!

Well thats all for now, here are some photos from today.....

I'm on a space mission!

I am so excited because today I have gone on a space mission! I am on the Starship Miracle Seeker (it's our church's Holiday Club) and we are having a fantastic time! Admiral Norma brought me with her today when she came to inspect the fleet. There are lots of Space Cadets, who are the children, the crew and the Leutenants who are the Team Leaders. The Captain and her No. 1 are in control - they are a bit strict but I like them a lot. There are also two silly aliens called Snot and Sniff, who can be a bit naughty.
Tomorrow we are all to come dressed as Aliens, as it's Aliens Day - I don't know what an Alien sheep would look like, so I'll have to think about that one.
One last thing for today before I show you some photos! On Friday at 6.30 pm we are having an open day! Anyone can come - if you are a parent or auntie or Granny of one of the children, for example. You can even come if you are just a friend! It's going to be lots of fun and you'll see what we've been doing all week. I hope you can come!
I'll write more later...
