Church: PAC (Praise, Activities and Cake)
Remember, remember the 5th of November…. …………………Remember me when I am gone away.
We probably all have at one time or another commented on how time appears to go quicker now, especially as we get older. A recent study suggests that our memory of time is punctuated with the old and the new. The more new experiences we have in our lives the longer time appears, as we have lots to fit in. When we get older we often have fewer new experiences to mark our time sheets with and so time goes quicker. Who knows, but one thing I remember from my child hood is the summer holiday club I went to and what I made there.
In our benefice we have had the benefit of over 20 years of summer holiday clubs for children to remember and we are very grateful for all who have helped over that period in so many ways, setting many happy and good memories into children’s and family’s minds. The only sad part was that it only happened once a year. But now that is all about to change with PAC.
PAC is a new monthly follow up or extension of the summer holiday club, but for all the family. It will follow the tried and tested formula of the summer group, starting with a time of praise and story telling, then time for craft activities and then refreshments. As Holiday Club follow on Group, doesn’t roll off the tongue, we thought we would use a shorter name that does what it says. And hence we have PAC
PAC stands for :- Praise, Activities & Cake following on the formula from the summer.
We will be holding a monthly session for one hour on the first Sunday of each month in the Reading
Rooms in Croughton. We have decided on the Reading Rooms, because of the facilities that they can offer, Heating, Toilets, kitchen and space. There is also car parking available behind them which is a luxury at most of our churches. Like the summer holiday club PAC is aimed at families with primary age children, but families with younger and older children are welcome as well. We hope that a regular time and place will help people’s memory and form a brand new habit. For your diaries here are the dates of the sessions until Easter. Looking forward to seeing you soon.
