Messy Church is bursting with easy-to-do ideas to draw people of all ages together and help them to experience what it means to be part of a Christian community outside of Sunday worship. At its heart, Messy Church aims to create the opportunity for parents, carers and children to enjoy expressing their creativity, sit down together to eat a meal, experience worship and have fun within a church context.
The book sets out the theory and practice of Messy Church and offers 15 themed programme ideas to get you started, each including:
- Bible references and background information
- Suggestions for 10 easy-to-do creative art and craft activities
- Easy-to-prepare everyday recipes
- Family-friendly worship outlines
"... crammed with good things... delights on every page... full of good fun, deep wisdom and practical know-how. Messy Church will be a blessing to many. I hope it leads to lots of mess and to many different forms of church."
From the foreword by the Revd Dr Steven Croft
Archbishops' Missioner and Team Leader of Fresh Expressions
