Children’s Day at Carter Knowle

Children's Day

Sabbath 25th October was Children’s Day at the Carter Knowle Road Seventh Day Adventist Church.

Lots of planning and preparation had gone into the day and a crowd was expected as on all our Children’s Days.

The Theme chosen was ‘I’m a Lamb, Feed Me’.

Every aspect of the Service was taken by the children of the Church with their own unique spin being put on it.

Children's Day

One session focussed on ‘Our Dreams’

There was so much humour in the passion and simplicity with which they put across there presentations – two in particular were Sadie who wanted to be a ‘Doctor or an Ice Cream Lady’, and TJ who ‘wanted to grow up so he could cross the road by himself’.

Tom

Their dreams for the Church were just as impressive including Tom who wanted to be a Builder ‘so he could build a bigger Church’ and Sonia who wanted ‘children to sing more’. Not surprisingly, Sonia was part of the Worship Team who led out for the day!

Children's Day

Two of the most poignant were from Rena who simply wanted ‘more people to come to Church and I want to live with Jesus’ and Lewis who was to the point and dreamed ‘I want to see Jesus’

All the Children’s dreams were so touching and could fill this whole report.

Bradley Ferguson

Our Preacher for the day was 11-year-old Bradley Ferguson. Bradley, even at 11 is no stranger to preaching and did an excellent job, focussing on the theme that the Sheep knows its Master’s voice.

Bradley challenged us all at the beginning and end of his sermon not leave the church the same way we had come in. Given what we witnessed, it would have been hard to have done so.
