Well, we've reached the six month mark for Food For Thought (FFT), and I have to say our last meeting before the summer hols was a lot of fun. With 80 people and a bouncy castle packed into the village hall, we kicked off with Alison leading us in some energetic song and dance moves.
Then Susan led the activity on the tables ( a cross between Blue Peter and the Generation game) with a challenge to each table, to create a 'home in a shoebox' in just ten minutes. All ages took part together, diving into old magazines, scraps of fabric and glue etc. with some amazing results.
The Cubs and Beavers had created a wonderful picture, that scrolled out across the width of the village hall, with images of the homes and buildings which house our community.
The children had a great time on the indoor bouncy castle, whilst the men were busy on the BBQ.
The kitchen was abuzz with tea and coffee and in general everyone seemed to be having a good time.Watching all this interaction, - a community sharing together,- brought Acts 2:46, a very special passage to mind.
I will always remember the day finishing with Michael trundling his BBQ through the rain and wind to the car, still with his little Chef's hat on..he reminded me of someone....Papa Smurf I think...but I'll let you be the judge of that!
