10:30am – BMC Junior Church – Theme: Roots, A new perspective.
2 Corinthians 5.6-10(11-13)14-17
Paul says that our aim should always be to please the Lord, in this life and the next. Christ died for us, and we should die to the ways of the world for him. In Christ, we are a new creation.
This week’s resources explore: if anyone is in Christ, everything has become new.
10:30am – BMC Junior Church – Theme: Roots, Open wide your hearts.
Paul tells the Corinthians that they are God’s servants and co-workers. Paul’s sufferings as a Christian should bind the church community together, not drive it apart.
This week’s resources explore: being God’s servants and co-workers.
The Junior Church are organising a Church family picnic following the morning service on Sunday 24th June. This will be on Highfields near the pavillion/playground area. All children must be accompanied by an adult. Please bring your own picnic. If you would like to come along, it would be great to see you. If wet the picnic will be held in the hall at the Queens road site. More information can be had from the Junior Church Leaders.

10:30am – BMC Junior Church – Theme: Roots, My grace is sufficient.
Paul writes about being ‘caught up into Paradise’, but declines to boast about it. Instead he focuses on his ‘thorn in the flesh’ because it makes him boast only about his weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in him.
This week’s resources explore: how God uses perceived weaknesses as a source of strength and blessing.
10:30am – BMC Junior Church – Theme: Roots, Gathered in Christ.
Paul writes of God’s plans for the whole of creation and, against that background, of the inheritance or destiny of those who have set their hope on Christ. They are the adopted children of God.
This week’s resources explore: being chosen by God; God’s plan for creation.
10:30am – BMC Junior Church – Theme: Roots, Household of God.
Paul writes that Jesus breaks down the walls of division between people of different ethnic origins – he brings reconciliation and makes peace. Those who follow him are no longer strangers, but fellow members of the household of God.
This week’s resources explore: how, in Christ, human divisions are broken down and a new community is built.
